Java 1.6 is just fine. Sun has done a consistently good job of advancing the language and library capabilities, as well as their performance and stability. There have been mis-steps and no system as large as Java is bug-free, but it's pretty damn good, really, including 1.6. > ... > > Personally I prefer to write code where I have just got to worry > about my code not the code base or programming tools as well, You do realize those days are now long gone, don't you? > so I am holding off installing 1.6 until it is reported as being a > little more reliable... It's not going to get substantially more reliable than it is now 'cause it's plenty reliable. I run IntelliJ (JetBrains) IDEA 7.0, and it _requires_ Java 1.6. I run all the own software I develop and all the other Java-based tools I use in Java 1.6. It all works just fine. > ...
