[jbosscache-dev] JCIP annotations

[Scott Marlow]

+1 for using jcip-annotations, whether we include jcip-annotation.jar or 
private label them into their own package.

+1 for reading JCIP, its the best Java concurrency book yet.

I'm a big believer in classes being documented as thread-safe or 
thread-unsafe.  This helps avoid bugs where the calling class doesn't 
protect access to an unprotected shared mutable object.
