Mastering Mustang, Developing Dolphin
Filed under: javaone javase6 javase7

Here are the slides for the presentation Mark and I gave on the upcoming and future release of the Java SE platform here:

Mastering Mustang, Developing Dolphin (PDF, 2.4mb)

Enjoy !

So as the last orange backpack leaves Moscone, we see the end of another JavaOne. Something odd happens each JavaOne, despite all the best efforts of the presenters and attendees to control the messaging, what ends up being memorable takes on a life of its own as the week progresses. For me, the two stars of the show were both technical (yay), and were
I also sensed people having more fun both at the conference and in their approach to the technology this year than in past years. Ya, that for me was the highlight.

Hi Manabu, That page lists release dates up to Tiger (J2SE 5.0), which released in September 2004. As the presentation lists, the release after Tiger, Java SE 6, codenamed 'Mustang' is scheduled for release October 2006. We hope to have Dolphin ready in 2008, but of course many things may happen before then. Cheers, - Danny
