The FreeBSD Foundation is pleased to announce the release of certified Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Development Kit (JDK) binaries for the FreeBSD 5.5 and 6.1 operating systems. For this release we added support for the AMD64 architecture. Built on the latest J2SE 5.0 Update 7 release from Sun Microsystems, this new distribution delivers on the FreeBSD Foundation's promise to make FreeBSD a robust platform for the development and deployment of Java applications.
