JDK 1.4.2 Bug, Reported May 31, Confirmed August 7, ...
I finally received the bug confirmation email from Sun on a bug I reported on May 29.
It took Sun 10 weeks to evaluate the report and confirm that it is a bug.
Take a look at Bug Parade, and see how long it would take you to evaluate it.
Compare with the 1 hour 36 minutes evaluation time for a gcj bug I reported.
