Oracle "Leaning Heavily" Towards JDK 7/JDK 8 Feature Split

Java 6 came out in December of 2006... Where did you learn to do math?

That time gap is big enough to developer a full release.

Mark said most of feature were done or very closely, so what the hack the team would do during the long delay? Getting familiar with the new Jdeveloper?
