Browser Java deprecated ... the enterprise problemBrowser Java deprecated ... the enterprise problemPosted Aug 30, 2012 19:20 UTC (Thu) by mjw (subscriber, #16740)In reply to: Browser Java deprecated ... the enterprise problem by nim-nim Parent article: The new Java 0Day examined (The H)

What is weird is that the second group which pushes out proprietary binaries seems to trump the first group which actually creates free software source code (OpenJDK is published under the GPL). Apparently there is now a proprietary binary jdk release from Oracle out there that presumably fixes the issue, but the only code published through OpenJDK is from the IcedTea people (I posted a patch yesterday and only non-Oracle engineers replied and tested it).
It is as if there is a priority reversion where binaries come before publicly reviewed code.
