I just downloaded the OpenJDK:
http://openjdk.java.net/ for Mac --
named SoyLatte
http://landonf.bikemonkey.org/static/soylatte/.. and it works like a charm!
This is really nifty: in the past, Mac users had to wait for ages for
Apple to catch up, mainly due to window manager / swing porting. Now
we have a java that is latest and greatest using Apple's X11. It also
allows you to start trying 64-bit versions on the Mac.
I suspect various Linux users will also like this, they likely have
similar problems with the old releases.
Cool!
