I believe the loop bug was fixed -- unofficially in Update 1 and
officially in Update 2.
I've noticed a few minor glitches in old UIs run under Java 7, but not
investigated further, as it wasn't until Update 2 that I took Java 7
seriously.

last i heard of java 7, the loop bug was still an issue and the
overall opinion was it wasn't ready for a production environment. but
that information was as of a few months ago, it may have changed since
then. i know that for my client, im recommending staying with java 6
in production until our next generation systems are ready, sometime in
2013.

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?
