The latest work-in-progress release of Java Standard Edition (Java SE) version 6.0 (code-named Mustang) offers a smorgasbord of improvements that will change how developers deal with security, JMX, OS files, internationalization, and desktop development in their Java applications. (Read Eric Bruno's article "Java SE 6 First Impressions: A Desktop Winner" to learn all the goodies in store.) Sun Microsystems took a very collaborative approach in developing the specification for this release and it shows. By listening to developers via JSR 270 (the umbrella Java Specification Request for the Java SE 6 release) and releasing the entire Java SE 6 source and binaries beginning in early February 2006, Sun has been able to cull quite a buffet of tantalizing new features.
