Points taken .. I have a great deal from my cloud provider on a wheezy
instance, so I have to see if I can negotiate to keep my rate. I do a
lot of custom MVC and security checks so things are nice and tight and
I haven't been hacked even though I get several thousand attempts a
day mostly from China and Iran.  I'm also kicking around whether to
use James or keep using postfix for email.  With an upgrade to Java 8
I can use the latest james release so I'll look into that.

I've been struggling to find a nice block of time for a full
regression test.  It's funny .. I was working for a bank a couple of
years back that was still on Java 1.6 and that's the way they liked
it. :)

Did you see the road map for Java 10?  Seems like we're moving a
little too fast sometimes ..
