2.8 questions? What is 4/5 of a question? A HA HA that's gold.

If you're looking to exercise stuff in trunk, I've checked in lots o'
stuff the design of which I considered tentative and to be refined based
on feedback, but since I have as yet collected close to zero feedback
those classes mostly remain as I checked them in.

Now that could be because they simply cannot be improved, but just in
case that is not the entire reason, here are some classes in the library
which git blame tells me I originated or materially altered.

  scala.BigDecimal
  scala.BigInt
  scala.GenericRange
  scala.annotation.{ tailrec, switch }
  scala.StringBuilder
  scala.collection.script._
  scala.collection.*MapProxy
  scala.Numeric
  scala.Ordering
  scala.util.control.Exception
  scala.reflect.{ Invocation, RichClass }
  scala.util.ScalaClassLoader
  scala.util.Hashable
  scala.xml.XML
  scala.xml.pull.XMLEventReader

Ideally we would place the trying emphasis on anything which differs
from the implementation in 2.7.5.

Thanks,
