That was when I got around to turning on the reminders.  I'm glad to hear
someone noticed.  All of the internal feedback on this so far has been
negative.

I will change the cron job to the first of the month.

Good to know.  I will check that out.

Subject: No source code of JDK 6.0 Update 4 on web site
Message-ID: <47B3152A.90303@CoSoCo.de>

Hi,

I started here:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/
Then the 7th "Download" button from the top brings me to:
http://download.java.net/jdk6/

There I only find the binaries of Build b11, but not the sources.

On http://download.java.net/jdk6/ "Previous Snapshot Releases" brings me to:
http://download.java.net/jdk6/6u10/archive/
where I only find Update 3 sources, but not Update 4.

BTW: on the page there are other errors:
"JDK6 Final" and "JDK6u1 Final" take to:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
... which is wrong for both, as there is JDK6u4

On https://jdk7.dev.java.net/ "Subversion" takes to:
https://jdk7.dev.java.net/source/browse/jdk7/
On trunk I only find the WWW folder, but not the sources of JDK7

http://openjdk.java.net/ "Mercurial repositories" takes to:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7
Also there I can't find any sources.

Regards,
Ulf

Hi Ulf,

I believe there is no source for JDK 6 in java.net for now, that will 
change really soon with the OpenJDK 6 project.

I'll see that the pointers for jdk 6 are look into.  Please see the rest 
of my comments embedded.

Yes, thank you that should be updated as well.

That is the source in Mercurial form.
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/

Sorry about my small understanding in english. You mean, that the 
links/button targets on 
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/?intcmp=1281 especially the one to 
the "Java SE 6 JDK Source Code" should be updated ?
If not, IMHO the "Download"-button for the sources should be removed.

Can you please give me a note, when the links are updated?

Thanks, so "Mercurial repositories"-link on http://openjdk.java.net/ 
should be corrected to http://hg.openjdk.java.net/ ?

Also: Communities->OpenJDK <https://openjdk.dev.java.net/> on 
http://java.sun.com/ is redirected to http://openjdk.java.net/ which 
ends in "No connection to server of openjdk.java.net" today ???

Well, I'll look into seeing that it is updated or removed as appropriate.

I will let you know.

The original pointer http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 is for jdk7, 
so the link should stay as it is.  There is more information in the mail 
archives for how to pull the source, but that page is down right now.

The server is down as of now.
