Finally we have an opensource, free, alternative java platform available that's compatible to the official Sun JDK. Our OpenJDK6 package is based on a mercurial checkout of icedtea6 and is built with the latest Sun OpenJDK GPL'ed sources. OpenJDK comes with Java Web Start and a native browser plugin for both i686 and x86_64. We would like to make openjdk6 our default java enviornment and deprecate any use of gcc-gcj/java-gcj-compat, except for the packages required to build openjdk6. Please give openjdk6 some testing and report bugs when you find them.
