The free of charge Oracle Java 6 is EOL, but this isn't the only Java 6
distributions. OpenJDK 6 is still maintained by RedHat [1] and is
commonly used on servers. On Debian OpenJDK 6 is still installed on 35%
of the machines with OpenJDK [2].

On the desktop side the figures are quite different. On the application
I maintain I observe that Java 8 dominates around 75%. Java 6 is around
17%, mostly due to OS X users not upgrading the Apple Java to the more
recent Oracle Java.
