There is also an update to Sun/Oracle's Java (update 22)
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/6u22releasenotes-176121.html

Are you still releasing updated versions of java-1.6.0-sun-compat
(is there a new name such as java-1.6.0-oracle-compat? ) or
is java-1.6.0-openjdk a replacement ?

Am I right in thinking that java-1.6.0-openjdk cannot yet be used
inside firefox or other browsers ?

Thanks,
