Applications will probably use the default Java theme and be non-fingerfriendly, and there is no hildon (or something similiar, with mobile components) for Java so Java will still not be a good language to code maemo apps in...?

But great to see someone doing something about the Java support!

"Native" (read "Native as meaning Swing or AWT) Java applications probably have that problem, right.
For SWT Java applications I made an swt-hildon port.

This gives you at least some "hildonization" and touch UI controls.
In the SWT thread there are some posts which explain what has been added so far.

Alright,
had some time and packaged up IcedTea 1.8 from debian packages for maemo.
This new version is currently in extras-devel.

The major difference is that this new version also includes a JIT while the old version was operating only in interpreted mode.
I don't have the time for benchmarking etc. so I can't tell how these versions compare performance-wise.
It would be great if you let me know how this works for you.

One benefit of the new version of course is that it includes all bug and security fixes of the last years.

In case anyone's interested, there's a screenshot of a Java/SWT app running on my blog (plus some OpenLazarus, too).

For those of you programming Clojure:
I added clojure-contrib and a script that I got from http://gist.github.com/407622 which gives you a nicely colored REPL (I called the package "clojure-color-repl") to extras.

You may be interested (although not surprised) to know that To-Do-O and icedtea6 seem to work fine under PR1.2

Hey, (I am a little bit late) but thanks for your testing.

As another news, you might be interested that, thanks to the brave testers, the 1.5 version of icedtea6 finally got 10 thumps up and I promoted it to extras.

Wonko,
I upgraded to icedtea6 1.8 and now Opera Mini with Microemulator doesn't work anymore... It's just me?

I uploaded a new version (1.8-4) which hopefully fixes the problem.
Just let me know if it works for you now.
