During the life time of 14.04, we expect many Java applications to switch to and rely on Java 8 (given the nice programming benefits this offers, the switch probably happens faster than for e.g. Java 7). We are considering making this change for our own open-source Java application, too.
Thus 14.04 should offer a convenient way to install openjdk-8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1341628 Title: [needs-packaging]openjdk-8 in 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-8/+bug/1341628/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
