Live DVD points of contact,<br>
We are starting our liveDVD build for 2010 and this time round we are
starting to run out of space.<br>
So as much as possible, we would like to use only one java version and
one servlet container.<br>
<br>
I'd also like to determine whether OpenJDK is an option for projects
(as it is the default java for Ubuntu and Xubuntu).<br>
<br>
So can each project please answer the questions:<br>
1. Can your project run with OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8)?<br>
<br>
2. Can your project run with sun-java6-jre?<br>
<br>
3. For projects that are bundling a JDK, can you just use the JRE?<br>
<br>
4. Which servlet containers can your application use? Will the default
servlet containers bundled with Ubuntu 10.04 work?<br>
<br>
5. Please update the project status which is at the url below and
copied in the table below:<br>

Sun Java moved to the Partner repository
For Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, the sun-java6 packages have been dropped from the Multiverse section of the Ubuntu archive. It is recommended that you use openjdk-6 instead.
If you can not switch from the proprietary Sun JDK/JRE to OpenJDK, you can install sun-java6 packages from the Canonical Partner Repository. You can configure your system to use this repository via command-line:
add-apt-repository "deb <a moz-do-not-send="true"

It's about time we decided on a Java JRE to use, Sun's or
OpenJDK.
- software improves with time so abandon old prejudices, base
new prejudices on new tests.. <span class="moz-smiley-s1" title=":)"><span>:)</span></span> ie don't assume the new
version of OpenJDK doesn't work (/as fast), prove it.
- do we even have license permission to redistribute Sun's?
- shipping two if we don't have to is wasteful..
ERROR: gvsig package failed to install
--no other error messages exposed? why not?
why no compliants from ./install_java.sh either?
...where has stderr gone? a tee needed?
gvsig-withjre: Depends: libgdal1-1.5.0
--updated in SVN to use lucid's 1.6.0
(1.7.0 seems avail from UbintuGIS too, if req'd)
