Hi Gabriel, I feel silly for you not getting any reply, so here's mine:
I trust we are far better/proficient in producing bugs in CloudStack - than the JDK team is (excuse my joke) - I don't recall when was the last time we had ANY issues due to JDK bugs (if any, at all, ever) I trust we are fine providing versions used by ACS - this is public info on the docs site anyway. I'm NOT keen to see any early builds (or emails for that matter), as we usually stick to the stable versions. This is just my 2 cents.
