Hi,
I'd like to announce that JDK 7u2 is now generally available [1].
More notice would be useful in future so people can release packages around the same time, rather than trailing it by weeks as will now be the case. This is the first mention I've heard of u2 on this list in weeks, if not months.
We would like to thank all of you for the contributions you've made! The final build number of OpenJDK 7u2 is b13. OpenJDK source code is available on the Mercurial server [2] and we will also publish source drops in the near future. Once they are available I will send out a link.
According to:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u2/rev/50b5ada8ca3e
it's just jumped from b13 to b21. Why is this? What happened to the interim builds?
If you're packaging this release, please let us know on this list, and please consider contributing fixes back into 7u4 [3], which is open for fixes.
I imagine most GNU/Linux distros will package via IcedTea rather than directly, hence why I was asking about which is the best tree to update IcedTea from. In future, it would be helpful if process issues like this and deadlines were made much clearer to those outside Oracle.
