Yes, there' s been some RedHat volunteers saying they' ll keep releasing OpenJDK 6 updates and security fixes, but from a developers' perspective it' s as unattractive as some .Net developer still using the Net 1.0 APIs... or a Java developer still using JDK 1.4 for that matter. Ubuntu: OpenJDK 7 http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/openjdk-7-jdk Fedora 18: OpenJDK 7 http://pkgs.org/download/java-1.7.0-openjdk SUSE: OpenJDK 7 http://software.opensuse.org/package/java-1_7_0-openjdk Debian: OpenJDK 7 http://packages.debian.org/sid/openjdk-7-jre ArchLinux: OpenJDK 7 https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/jre7-openjdk/ So, again: "we should also respect that many distros are probably going to ship java 6 for a while." = SciFi ?
