Are there any plans to migrate the Atlassian product suite to Java 7? There have been a number of helpful features that have been introduced that plugin developers (myself included) would appreciate using.

Jim

We are actively pursuing Java 7 support in all our products - as developers we want access to these new features as well :-)

I can't comment on the timeframes though, that's up to the PMs, but I can't imagine it being a very long wait.

It looks like Java 6 SE has had an EOL extension until Nov 2012 so it's taken the pressure off from a support perspective.
