Hi all, The company I work at deploys a webstarted java client to about 200 customers. We initially developed on Java 5 back in 2004 and migrated our customer base to Java 6 when that became available. For the most part customers were fine with this as we made the final cut off match the EOL for Java 5 anyway, my point being we generally adopt the newer versions as they become available. Java 6 EOL in July 2012 is rapidly approaching (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html) and although we've worked to make the changes need we keep seeing new issues. I'd think it might just be us but Oracle don't seem to be pushing Java 7 out in the updates (I got Java 6u30 in the latest update) so it seems they maybe aren't confident it's ready for prime time.
Is anyone else seeing this? Is anyone thinking moving customers (or themselves if server side) to Java 7 is going to be a mistake right now? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
