There's dancing in the streets!
Thanks to the folks at Apple for shipping
64 bit Intel support for Java SE 6.
We really appreciate the work that they've done to make this happen. And thanks to the folks at Red Hat and Ubuntu for announcing the inclusion of

Re: Your 6u10 beta survey comments
Here is another plug for the survey. We spent over an hour going over the responses yesterday and have had many discussions about the feedback since then. Some people who took the survey are being contacted for more information in regards to their comments. Please take a few minutes and let us know what you think. So far there have been 53 responses to the survey. We would really like to see that number much higher. http://java.sun.com/webapps/survey/display?survey_id=7402. Thank you for your time. —
Re: Newbie - confused about jax-ws in java SE 1.6
JAX-WS in SE lags behind the java.net releases. I think you are running into some bugs. We schedule to put the selected bug fixes in the update releases of JDK 6. Can you try putting sjsxp.jar (from java.net distribution) or woodstox.jar(get it from woodstox site) in the classpath when running with Java SE 6. That may fix all your problems. For the request timeout and custom extensions are not supported in JDK6. If you want to use any of these, just put java.net's jax-ws ri jars in the classpath. —
Comments on J6 Update N
First of all, Java 6 Update N are the coolest Runtime. 1st, it have the Flash style distribution ( smaller size ) + can be add on and became some thing like Adobe AIR. A more powerful VM. BUT! 1) Any reasons the compressed Kernel VM size increased from 2.xxMB to 4.xx MB ? 2) how nice if we can customize the download dialog, some thing like what Flash able to do. 3) Standard Java classes can be download when needed. How bout users or 3rd parties libraries ? Is there anyway we can do that for our own jar files ? —
