While I would not consider it ideal I would recommend keeping the last JDK 1.6 version that still is covered by the DLJ and ship the OpenJDK releases as well. There are some issues with OpenJDK 6 that prevent some applications from working. For the JDK 1.6 version a warning should/could be popped up when installing stating it is on its way out and is merely available as a convenience. This would give applications time to repackage until 12.2? Thoughts?

How about regular JDK 7? It can be handled like Firefox in 11.4: the beta was shipped, and later updated to the final version.
Regular JDK7 is not anymore under the distributor license, so not an option, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj@{suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter/Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-java+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-java+help@opensuse.org ----- No virus found in this message.
