We haven't got the TCK for Java 7 yet. We'll certify as soon as
we do.
This meant the community and/or Red Hat did not get the JSR-336 TCK yet. It doesn't
mean there is any problem with license or process that prevents Fedora to get the TCK and
certifiy OpenJDK 7 finaries for F16 or a future release.
Am I correct? If I am, is there a timeframe for certified builds? I'd hate having to
get Oracle proprietaty binaries just to satisfy bureucratic requirements. :-(
And while we're talking about Java 7, I heard about serious problems preventing some
open source packages like Lucene from running under Java 7 on production settings. Anyone
on the list can vouch for Java 7 in full production, or can based on experience advise
against that? I rememeber all first releases (.1, .3) of JDK were somewat problematic
(bugs).
