I looked at the source because i was looking for a concurrent implementation of a weak value map. After the first look i think it could be done on the base of your classes. My plan is to do cleaning of stale (SoftReference.get() delivers null) entries piggy packed on put / get operations. Are there any plans on your side for such an implementation?

  Dang I gotta get the forum posts forwarded to my email; sorry for the loooong delay in answering.
  
  No current plans, although I've seen the need for a weak-ref version on several occasions so this may change SomeDay.
