End of Public Updates for Java SE 6

You haven't migrated to Java 7 yet? Well, it looks like you will have a bigger incentive soon. Java 6 will have its last public release on the 19 February 2013. After that, you'll need to pay to get the security fixes and bugfixes. That's what you get with Oracle.

In the old days, when Sun shone on Java, all updates were public. Alas, money is the keyword now.

But in anything, there is something good. Java 7 is the latest and greatest Java, and it's been out for more than a year. It's time to move forward.

All that is in there is just stuff I made up for the most part. However, the chances that some truth found its way in it are non negligible so this possibility should not be discarded. After all, I usually link to my sources. That said, those sources are most likely probably completely made up as well. You want to make sure it's going to work? Try it out for yourself. Ah, as well, those parts that are not blatantly stolen to others are © Pieroxy. Obviously. And last, but not least, thanks to David Vignoni for his icon set nuvola, to Manfred Klein for his font Stampede and to George Herriman for the work of his life, Krazy Kat.
