Why isn't JRE 1.5.0_12-b03 available for download yet?
Hi forum
We have been eagerly awaiting JRE 1.5.0_12 for a long time, because reports indicated, that a critical bug for us should have been fixed finally. The same reports indicated a release date of May 8th, which now has passed.
The official site for 1.5.0 here at Sun:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
doesn抰 list it yet, however, you can apparently download it from Sun here:
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=11230
For reference, you can find the above download link by a simple Google search...
I have tested the above download and can conclude, that the mentioned bug has been fixed. What I'm just wondering a lot is... this release looks to me as a 100% official release, there's no sign of "beta" or "prerelease" or anything anywhere - but why isn't it available on the official site yet then - and when will it be?
Can somebody from Sun please shed some light over this?
Thanks,
Jacob
