To justify my spending a month or more re-writing the JEP to no longer I also don't think the gap is long enough I don't think it's acceptable to have Java unavailable to OS X users Leaves us a gap of (perhaps) a few months between the first FF 3.6 Than 4 months from now, and perhaps a month or two after that. Not on the trunk and subsequent branches).Р”Р„s best we can tell, Apple's Java Plugin2 will be released no earlier I think we should restore OJI and the JEP on the 1.9.2 branch (though I'll bite the bullet and make the following proposal: And no developer preview for an 'UpdateР”В¦' has yet appeared on ADC.

But itР”Р„ppears this update was just meant to catch Apple's JVMs up to Sun's Update 5 was faster - it had only one developer preview. Also, generally at leastР”Сћ-3 'developer previews' appear on ADC before the actual release. Was released only 2.5 months after Update 4.

So the question becomes: When will 'the next developer preview'Р”Р„ppear on ADC, and when will it be released (via Software Update)? I *don't* think it's a viable option to drop support for Java on OS X. It'd take me about a month to rewrite the JEP not to need OJI, but itР”В¬ould easily take longer. Java-to-JavaScript and JavaScript-to-Java LiveConnect continue to workР”Р„s before - as they do in Sun's Java Plugin2 releases). But it won't be easy (particularly making sure This leaves re-writing the JEP so that it doesn't use OJI. Nobody both willing and able to maintain it. With him - OJI hasn't been maintained for a long time, and there's Josh has ruled out restoring OJI on the trunk, and I basically agree Successful product, we have to start thinking about what we'll do if
