With all the complaining about Apple not having shipped JDK 6 with Leopard it’s nice that someone has actually stopped whining and started coding. So kudos to Landon Fuller for actually doing something useful. Of course, he hasn’t really gotten anywhere because porting Java is an awful lot of work, but if nothing else he’ll understand why it takes Apple so long.

It also means we can start the timer to see if the open source model can actually bring Java 6 to OS X faster than Apple can.
