Some important changes regarding Java are in the works for SAP BusinessObjects BI customers. Java 6 will officially reach its end of life in February 2013 but SAP is already removing it from the latest editions SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 and SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence 4.0. Java 7 support is coming to the BI platform, but not here just yet. I have detailed these changes on the EV Technologies blog.
