After lfs-rc1 is released there is a hard package freeze for lfs and a soft package freeze for blfs. The soft freeze for blfs can be waived if discussed and agreed on the -dev mailing list. In this case, I think there is time for an update.

Well, actually, the official release has appeared 3 days ago: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/2014-August/029287.html. I was not looking at the right place, sorry...

I have a problem with versionning:
- IcedTea has changed version (from 2.5.1 to 2.5.2)
- OpenJDK is still at 1.7.0_65
Problem is that we upload files to a directory on anduin, whose name contains only the OJDK version. I can add a "-1" to the version in the directory name, or add the icedtea version to the directory name. I suggest not changing the names of the files themselves (ie keep OpenJDK-1.7.0.65-x86_64-bin.tar.xz).
What do you think?

Asked Bruce about this, first time it happened to me. Conclusion was: no need to upload new binaries, so, Java page remains the same.
Funny, first time OJDK is behind Oracle JDK, always the inverse occurs.

Thanks, good to know : I do not have to regenerate the 32 bit binary.
However, a problem remains: what about the downloaded files (corba et al)? They are not versionned but they are different in the new version. If we upload them to the same directory as the old versions, people using older versions of the book (between July and now) will get wrong md5sums (at least), and maybe incompatible (I do not think so in this case) versions.

These need to be uploaded. I usually created a directory with the OJDK and IT versions in the name, for that. Like they do in Debian.
Still not announced yet. Updating the book is a long job since you need to compile for 2 architectures in order to upload the binaries to anduin. I suggest moving this to 7.7. Thoughts?
