Very nearly ... Build 146 has been tagged in the JDK 7 master forest. We're still chasing down a few bugs, so this isn't quite a Release Candidate, but it's very close. Binaries of this build will undergo a final round of JCK testing and then, if all goes well, be declared the Reference Implementation [1] of Java SE 7 (JSR 336) [2].
(The candidate RI binaries will be made available shortly.) Of note in this build is the first update to JavaDoc's default display style in many years [3]. This is enabled by other recent work on the long-neglected JavaDoc tool [4], in particular the change to leverage Cascading Style Sheets more thoroughly so that most aspects of the display style can be changed simply by providing a new stylesheet. - Mark [1] http://blogs.oracle.com/henrik/entry/moving_to_openjdk_as_the [2] http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=336 [3] http://download.java.net/jdk7/docs/api/ [4] http://blogs.oracle.com/jjg/entry/what_s_up_javadoc
