title: JGoodies Binding vs. JSR 295
body: <p>What is the practical difference between JGoodies Binding and JSR 295, Beans Binding? They both seem to be intended for the same purpose and get their job done (with slightly different approaches). JGoodies Binding is more mature, but JSR 295 is eventually getting part of JDK in Java 7.</p>
  
  <p>Using a standard part of JDK is surely preferable to using a separate library for the same function, but are there other factors to consider? Are there yet some other alternatives? Choosing between these is pretty irreversible architectural decision...</p>
