Please make the packages available _before_ release, so people interested in them will be able to test if they work.
They're in Java:openjdk6:Factory repository (currently it contains an openjdk b12).
Java and its plugin are very important for various on-line services: banks, school services, tax payment in many countries.
Yes and we have a sun plugin too as a part of non-oss repository.
The decision of switching to openJDK as default is, I think, done in a hurry to push an open package instead than the more tested SUN JVM
No, the decision was based on fact, that openjdk is able to build all of Java packages in SUSE. But if you want to open a discussion about default JVM in SUSE, please send a post to opensuse ML, which is a better place than bugzilla. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
