I was completely puzzled by this headline for a few seconds. I wondered why CNN would run a technical article about open libraries for GC. And what the heck do "abandoned books" have to do with anything. Context is everything.

I had the exact same feeling. I initially imagined a guy finding new clues to build an open source GC library from a pile of old Java reference books.

"Abandoned Books" - that actually sounds like a pretty clever book-keeping algorithm for a GC.
