IcedTea is derived from OpenJDK, Sun's open-source implementation of
the Java SE platform.  At this time the build from which IcedTea was
constructed corresponds to an early build of JDK 7.  When JDK 7
is complete it will implement the Java SE 7 Platform Specification.
Work on that specification is underway, but far from final.  Any APIs
in the JDK 7 implementation, whether new or old, are therefore subject
to minor adjustments, major revisions, or even outright removal
between now and the time that the Java SE 7 Platform Specification is
finalized.  Please take these facts into account before depending upon
IcedTea.

IcedTea is in F8, and I don't doubt some brave souls will use F8 for
that.
