This is the very big problem I see with having a separate FAQ to the main information on the wiki. Unless it's specific to Lubuntu I really don't see why it should exist on our FAQ area at all. All this does is duplicate information AND reduce the number of people working on a topic. This is a perfect example because the proper Java page [0] was updated a while ago to reflect the changes. So my opinion is, unless it's specific to Lubuntu we should contribute and rely on the community documentation for *Ubuntu instead of trying to carve out our own little niche that will easily be out of date and hard to maintain with fewer resources. (To answer your question my suggestion would be to remove the java section altogether, if you HAVE to have something, link to the main page for Java).
