I've asked this approximate question here a few times, with no official response. The reason I ask is that in addition to Java 7 not being recommended, in Java 7 OpenJDK becomes the "reference" JVM, and OpenJDK is also not recommended. >From other channels, I have conjectured that the current advice on Java 7 is "it 'works' but is not as extensively tested (and definitely not as commonly deployed) as Java 6". =Rob -- =Robert Coli AIM>ALK - rc...@palominodb.com YAHOO - rcoli.palominob SKYPE - rcoli_palominodb
