Java 6 EOLed
Here's another data point in the "move to Java 7 debate": Oracle apparently
just EOLed Java 6. Read the Slashdot article here:
http://developers.slashdot.org/story/13/06/20/1819245/java-6-eold-by-oracle
While I realize many many many users of Accumulo will continue to use Java
6, they now will do so at their increasing peril.

Yes, but that only matters for people willing to stick to OpenJDK.

I think in the discussion previoiusly, someone (John Vines?) mentioned
RedHat was picking up the slack.
