I have tried to compile OpenJDK6 under Darwin development environment
in Mac OS X 10.5 Intel, but it doesn't execute JOSM correctly. I have
problems opening JOSM, none of my plugins execute. I don't know if
this is something with OpenJDK or with the plugins. It would be best
if Apple got an official Sun JDK6 release, as Sun only points to apple
when trying to download Java.
I am temporarily solving the problem with running last Java5 release
of JOSM, but understand that this is only a temporary solution

I've not checked but if you do change to Ubuntu you'll still be
trying
to download the Java version for Linux on PPC. I don't think
that will
be supported by sun. But like I say I've not checked. The latest
Java is
only supported on Intel 86 Arch as far as I remember.
If you want the "official" java from Sun (which doesn't even exists
anymore), no.
But openjdk can be compiled on other architecture.
Debian has it for alpha amd64 armel i386 ia64 mips mipsel powerpc
sparc, see
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/openjdk-6-jre
so ubuntu should too
I tried that for something else but unfortunately the Java6 source
was
trying to run features which were not implemented by the open source
JRE's. Still you're right that an open JRE might implement enough
of the
spec to get JOSM off the ground.
Interesting, I run lastest JOSM with OpenJDK without any big fuss on
Ubuntu 10.04.
It should run on Mac OS X.
It should, but Mac OS X users in general seem to be more interested in
demanding that Apple do things for them instead of helping themselves,
so apps like that don't get ported.
Actually I'd be willing to bet that compiling OpenJDK 6 on OSX PPC
against X11.app is a relatively trivial matter if you apply the
patches from FreeBSD, but probably nobody has tried that yet, and even
if they did OSX users feel icky when they have to run anything under
X11.app.
