jessie won't ship anymore with OpenJDK 6, so we have to build and run using
OpenJDK 7. The good thing is that almost everything will continue to run, we
just have to fix build failures with OpenJDK 7. See [1] for the discussion of
the transition, and [2] for the list of issues which need to get addressed.
Planning to do the transition in two steps:
- Change the jre/jdk defaults to OpenJDK 7 from OpenJDK 6 which do have
a working OpenJDK 7. Keep OpenJDK 6 as the default for architectures
with a non-working OpenJDK 7. This decouples the transition from having
to change build dependencies in packages building bindings.
From my point of view this can happen anytime soon, and is mostly
independent from other transitions.
- When done, drop java support for architectures not having OpenJDK 7
anymore (mips, mipsel, maybe s390). Nothing needs to be done if
these architectures don't qualify as release architectures anymore.

There were just two packages in testing still depending on openjdk-6, so I
removed them from testing together with openjdk-6. There is #675495 so it will
not enter jessie again.
Closing.
