An aside for Java programmers... BigDecimal...
Don't you just love it! Love it and hate it that is.
Benoit Xhenseval recently emailed me about a proposal from within IBM to address the nastiness of BigDecimal syntax by supporting operator overloading in Java. It seems to me a very good way to make the elegance of BigDecimal's fully controlled rounding, with a reasonably readable way of using it. xProcess increasingly uses BigDecimals and I know readers and writers of its code would find this very helpful. If you're interested in supporting the proposal, see Glyn Normington's blog for more details.
