Java users in the enterprise like myself in some of my client work won't be massively enthralled by this approach, though not necessarily for good reasons. Audit and compliance teams love to pick up on software versions not on the latest version, so the idea of having a six month churn just means I can see man-months of effort being plowed into no-op changes. We're also unlikely to benefit since vendor software can't upgrade (or won't certify new versions) and the mannequin developers consultancies place offshore can barely work with Java 1.4 concepts. Best I can hope for is improvements in GC and better defaults.
