I expect so. (Paul -- correct me if I'm wrong.)
Not sure that I understand the question but different JDK6 update releases
contain different HS versions. So different JDK7 update releases will also
contain different HS versions.
I think the question is whether JDK6 will continue to receive new HS
versions after JDK7 is released or whether JDK6 will enter a more
conservative update policy once JDK7 is released.
I think they are two different questions:
a) how often will JDK6 be updated post JDK7?
b) will the scope of those updates include Hotspot updates?
I can't answer those.
