    initial v1  
    1 The OpenJDK ports predate the official Oracle Mac-Port entirely. The bootstrap port is likely unnecessary now, and the main OpenJDK port should be replaced with an openjdk7 port -- Oracle has never officially supported openjdk6 on Mac OS X, so unless someone else wants to step into the role of JDK hacking, it's a *lot* of work  to keep it running, and I'm unlikely to have time to do so.

    33I would be happy to look at patches or offer any advice I can on bringing over openjdk7 (or updating openjdk6, if you're feeling a bit more brave).
