With the establishment of Java 7 as the de-facto JRE of Oracle, the clock is ticking down for Java 6! It will be End-Of-Life around February 2013, so we better get going and upgrade! In this episode we cover how to migrate to Java 7, and cover some of the most notable Java 7 features (Networking nuts, your prayers have been answered!) while preparing a path to upgrade. If you have a Java 6 (or 5 or 4) project, this is mandatory listening!
