I think JSR 65 has been withdrawn because of the new varargs syntax of JDK
1.5.

An ellipse is used to define a parameter which takes an arbitrary number of
arguments.
Here's a method definition taken from class PrintStream of JDK 1.5:


public PrintStream format(String format,
                          Object... args)
