[Savannah-hackers-public] Savannah's position on Java implementations

[Sebastian Gerhardt]

Hello,

I know there was some objection to recommend Java projects
which rely on the original Sun implementation. But it seems as if
there has been a lot of movement in this area lately.

Can anyone brief me on the current requirements for Savannah hosting?
For example, what would be the decision on "runs on version 6 of Java"?

Thanks.
