We want Java 6 on the Mac!
Yes, like many others, I want up to date Java support on the Mac! I don't care if it comes from Apple or Sun, but I want it. The Mac is very popular in the opensource Java development community, and these über geeks are very visible (just look at conference pictures) and are purchasing advisors in their work places in "business oriented" departments, i.e. not limited to the creative workers, and also in their families (my parents, sister and parents in law each have several Macs).
So Apple, read this: if you neglect Java developers, you will loose marketshare.
Funny how the anywhere in "run anywhere" seems to keep shrinking. I've been fuming about the lack of a 64-bit browser plugin on any platform for about a year now. I understand there's limited development resources but focus on the core selling point of Java: cross-platform compatibility.
