Sure. The core of the adapter actually is very simple, so I'm pretty confident it will not cause much isssues, and even if it does, I'm even more sure that I will be able to resolve them. > Still, I think I would be more comfortable with this decision if > someone tried running our test suite in a Jessie environment, first: > if it works fine, then we'll know that we won't have to fix our custom > adapter for a while, and this would considerably alleviate my fears. > I've created #7212 to this end. > > Do you mind if I assign this ticket to you (anonym), set it as > a blocker to make a decision on #6400, and flag it for the 2.0 > milestone (on the grounds that making sure our test suite's > dependencies won't break to often is definitely an important > sustainability matter)? Please do! FWIW, my personal fear has been that RJB would break with Java 7, which would make Jessie's potential discontinuation of Java 6 [1] a problem, but I've at least confirmed that RJB plays well with Java 7 (and Sikuli script reportedly does, too).
