Neither did I. But I had a quick look at http://guava-libraries.googlecode.com/files/JavaCachingwithGuava.pdf and it sounds promising.
I'll try to get an idea, how and where and why current code base uses ehcache to figure, if and how Guava could be an appropriate replacement.

Guava is pretty huge, so it's hard to tell ... But I'll take the chance to get a better overview of JAMWiki code to see whether there are, or not.
In the end I don't think this is something that has to be finished in once commit, so why not give it a start for 2.0 ;-)
