Help, I’m Still Using Java 1.4!
As many people know, the most current Java Release Family is Java 6.6. It was made available to the general public back in December 2006. Java 7 - Codename Dolphin is in beta, but the development community is expecting it to be released sometime in 2008. With the introduction of the new, it is also time to say goodbye to the old. The Java 1.4 family will reach its End of Service Life (EOSL) this year, in October 2008.

Similarly, Sun announced in April that the EOSL for Java 5.x will be in October of 2009.
