Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

Another example of as(...) used for easily extensible APIs
Here's another simple example of how the as(...) idiom can be used for create an API which is stable, elegant, but extensible (this time unrelated to any semantic stuff). Up to a few days ago, I had the following interface in the GeoCoding API of forceTen:
public interface GeoCoderEntity extends Comparable, Serializable, As, Lookup.Provider
{
public enum Type
{
...
};
@Nonnull

@Nonnull
public Coordinate getCoordinate();
@Nonnull
public String getCode();
@Nonnull
public String getTypeAsString();
