[Live-demo] OpenJDK Only for LiveDVD 5.5

[Jody Garnett]

An easy one is to add the extensions into libs/ext and then run uDig without its "jre" folder so it uses the system default. 

Geosolutions (i.e. Simone or Andrea) is the best point of contact with respect to compatibility with OpenJDK. Personally I was not going to bother until Java 7 or Java 8.

You could also try talking to Andrea Antonello who at least uses Linux and may be able to test?

If you want you can also contact me officially as "GeoTools Officer" and I will take the question to the geotools-devel email list for you. However I expect I need a more than "Open JDK" (this page for example does not give me much to work from http://openjdk.java.net/install/).
