-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I feel the need to weigh in on this. With Oracle's Java gone from the repositories, there isn't any other compelling alternative except OpenJDK for an enterprise grade Java stack.
Since OpenJDK *is* the reference implementation of Java, I'd rather see gcj taken out. Otherwise without a supported OpenJDK in main, 3/4 of our servers at work would be affected. We have a combination of Glassfish, Tomcat, OpenAM, OpenDJ, and OpenIDM all running on OpenJDK. Without it, I'm left on my own when vulnerabilities come out - it's enough trying to keep the applications secure, never mind having to worry about an unsupported Java on Internet facing webservers. Without OpenJDK I would most certainly migrate all the servers at work to another distribution that maintains OpenJDK as part of its core packages.
