Good News for Java on the Mac

Looks like Oracle and Apple have come to terms about supporting Java on the Mac. Now it looks like we'll have a standard distribution of Java from Oracle (Sun) just like the Windows and Linux builds. That's nice.

I have no doubt that it'll be more current than the versions Apple ships - they try to stay pretty stable on a single version of the OS, but Oracle (Sun) really moves regardless of the underlying OS version. I'm just not sure about the overall quality, but I guess that's going to be as good as the linux port. Which is to say, not bad.

Good enough. Glad to hear it.
