Java 9 arriverà nel settembre del prossimo anno, secondo quanto annunciato da Oracle.
Chief Java Architect Mark Reinhold recently proposed a new schedule for Java 9 milestones, now on the JDK 9 project page
- 10 December 2015: Feature Complete
- 04 February 2016: All Tests Run
- 25 February 2016: Rampdown Start
- 21 April 2016: Zero Bug Bounce
- 16 June 2016: Rampdown Phase 2
- 21 July 2016: Final Release Candidate
- 22 September 2016: General Availability
Java 9 will introduce a modularized JDK, which means developers will be able to load smaller amounts of code when running applications that donít require the entire environment. This will enable Java to scale from small devices to large software systems while providing a secure platform.
Rilasciata la versione 4.2.0 di LibreOffice
This is the first release from the 4.2 branch of LibreOffice which contains many exciting new features, and is targeted for early adopters and private power users — for conservative requirements, we refer you to LibreOffice 4.1.4 from the previous series.
The following notes apply:
- This release is bit-for-bit identical to the 4.2.0 Release Candidate 4, so you don't need to download or reinstall if you have that version already.
- Mac version doesn't bundle the mediawiki extension
- The distribution for Windows is an international build, so you can choose the user interface language that you prefer. Help content is available via an online service, or alternatively as a separate install.
- Our Windows binaries are digitally signed by The Document Foundation.
- For Windows users that have OpenOffice.org installed, we advise uninstalling that beforehand, because it registers the same file type associations.
- If you run Linux, the GCJ Java variant has known issues with LibreOffice, we advise to e.g. use OpenJDK instead.
- Some menu entries have changed or added. If you miss something, that may be due to the use of customised menu settings from your previous LibreOffice installation.
- This version still contains a few annoying bugs.

Oracle ha effettuato l'update di Java 7 SDK. JDK 7u10 è adesso certificata per Mac OS X 10.8 e Windows 8.
The JDK 7u10 release includes the following enhancements:
- The ability to disable any Java application from running in the browser. This mode can be set in the Java Control Panel or (on Microsoft Windows platform only) using a command-line install argument.
- The ability to select the desired level of security for unsigned applets, Java Web Start applications, and embedded JavaFX applications that run in a browser. Four levels of security are supported. This feature can be set in the Java Control Panel or (on Microsoft Windows platform only) using a command-line install argument.
- New dialogs to warn you when the JRE is insecure (either expired or below the security baseline) and needs to be updated.

Rilasciata la versione finale di Spring Framework 3.2, framework open source per applicazioni Java
Exactly one year after the Spring Framework 3.1 release, I'm pleased to announce that Spring Framework 3.2 is generally available now!
As previously discussed, key features in Spring Framework 3.2 include:* Refined Java SE 7 support within the framework as well as through upgrades to CGLIB 3.0, ASM 4.0 (both of which we're inlining now) and AspectJ 1.7
* Concurrency refinements across the framework, avoiding the use of synchronization wherever possible – in particular for scoped/prototype beans
* Allowing for @Autowired and @Value to be used as meta-annotations, e.g. to build custom injection annotations in combination with specific qualifiers
* Support for custom @Bean definition annotations in @Configuration classes, e.g. in combination with specific qualifiers, @Lazy, @Primary, etc
* Asynchronous MVC processing on Servlet 3.0, with Spring MVC handler methods being able to return Callables and DeferredResults
* Inclusion of the formerly-standalone Spring MVC Test project, allowing for first-class testing of Spring MVC applications
* Support for loading WebApplicationContexts in the TestContext framework, and further improvements for web application testing
* Early support for JCache 0.5 (JSR-107) as a backend for Spring's cache abstraction

Rilasciata LibreOffice 3.6.4
This is the sixth release from the 3.6 branch of LibreOffice.
It contains many exciting new features, and is the recommended version for home and corporate users.The following notes apply:
- This release is bit-for-bit identical to the 3.6.4 Release Candidate 3, so you don't need to download or reinstall if you have that version already.
- The distribution for Windows is an international build, so you can choose the user interface language that you prefer. Help content is available via an online service, or alternatively as a separate install.
- For Windows users that have LibreOffice prior to version 3.4.5 installed, uninstall that beforehand. Otherwise, the upgrade to 3.6.4 may fail.
- For Windows users that have OpenOffice.org installed, we advise uninstalling that beforehand, because it registers the same file type associations.
- If you run Windows 2000, you may require this update before being able to install LibreOffice.
- If you run Linux, the GCJ Java variant has known issues with LibreOffice, we advise to e.g. use OpenJDK instead.

Oracle ha posticipato la fine vita di Java 6 portandola a febbraio 2013. In precedenza era stata spostata da luglio 2012 a Novembre 2012, adesso questo ulteriore posticipo. L'annuncio è stato dato in un post sul blog di Henrik Stahl, Senior Director di Oracle Product Management, che ha detto che la decisione è stata presa dopo "un'ulteriore consultazione e considerazione". L'ultima versione di Oracle JDK 6 sarà quindi rilasciata nel mese di febbraio 2013.
Dopo la fine degli aggiornamenti pubblici per JDK 6, se si dispone di un valido contratto di supporto per un prodotto Oracle che richiede JDK 6, o se si dispone di un contratto di supporto Oracle Java SE, ci saranno ancora versioni di supporto aggiuntivo di JDK 6 che saranno disponibili su My Oracle Support. Le precedenti versioni di JDK 6 resteranno a disposizione del pubblico su Java Archive, per scopi di test e debug, ma Oracle non raccomanda l'utilizzo di queste versioni per scopi diversi da test e debug.
