See http://www.sun.com/software/opensource/java/faq.jsp#b9

"When we open-source the full JDK we'll make the sources for both JDK 6 and JDK
7 available. The community will have both a stable release - JDK 6 - on which to
focus quality improvements, and JDK 7, the next feature release where all the
action will be for innovation and new capabilities."
