I don't like this – this would suggest one comes from Sun, the other from Oracle, while both are from Oracle now and both were developed mainly by Sun. > Rationale: > there is a lot of places where java 1.6 is still required.

As it is often called "Java 6" an "Java 7", then maybe we should package it as 'oracle-java6' and 'oracle-java7'? BTW. we should probably package IcedTea 7 too.
