The current release version for Java 6 is Update 7.
Update 10 has been listed as a 'Release Candidate' for some time now, but I need it. The performance and other improvements would be nice, but it is also listed as the fix version for a production bug of ours.

We still run Java 1.4 in prod, and took the chance to jump directly to 6.0.7, but a bug (I don't have the bug number on me) causes our Tomcat instances to stop, forcing us to step back to 1.4.

I believe that the original release date was due for early 2008...

Not happy, Jan

FYI
No, we are not prepared to step to Java 5 (apparently the issue exists there too)
No, we won't move to 6u10 while it is a release candidate or Java 7

Thank you, I hadn't found that page.
So 'Fall' is any time now?

Technically, Fall hasn't even started, so I guess it could be another 3 months.
