Hello Jonathan,

I asked a similar question before. LO will keep supporting Java for UNO (extensions) for sure. Right now, LO doesn't bundle a JVM, and I think it will remain like that :) So whichever JVM the user uses will be invoked to run whatever code is needed.

There might be some incompatibilities between Java 7 and previous versions that may cause some bugs. I hope not, sincerely.

I haven't heard of a Java 7 testing plan in place though. Maybe you could initiate one?

Currently im working on another aspect of LO development which is taking up my time currently. If I am not mistaken for the most part when new versions of java are released, they try to keep it as backwards compatible as possible, granted some methods or classes might become obsolete. Maybe once java7 goes live ill do some testing and see how badly things break.
