A couple of weeks back our teams started to work on another significant milestone of Java SE in the 6 family - 6u12. Even though it is "just" one of the updates, it is going to bring some of the new major functionality the Java users have been asking for, for a long time. The complete list of new features will be published upon the release, but to highlight some of the ones some of you might find interesting:
* 64-bit plugin (4802695) - allows running applets and Java WebStart applications in a 64-bit VM in a 64-bit browser on the supported platforms
* Lightweight/heavyweight component mixing (4811096) - enables easier embedding
* Windows Server 2008 support
Now the best part - all of these features have already been integrated in the early access builds. You can check the latest (b02) one out on the http://jdk6.dev.java.net portal, or directly at the download page - http://download.java.net/jdk6/. The plan is to publish all builds until the GA (General Availability) release, so check back often for new builds.
Give it a try and let us if you encounter any issues. The best way is through this page.
