Currently with the Tiger namechange, if a user installs the jre, the installer product name is "J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0".  The users sees this throughout the installation.  However, if the release is 1.5.0_01, it the title will be exactly the same as with 1.5.0.

Users will be confused when they have 1.5.0 installed, and then they update to 1.5.0_01.  They may think that it is just reinstalling 1.5.0.  We need someway of indicating to the user that it is an update release.

One suggestion is to call the product names:

J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 (Update Release 1)
J2SE Development Kit 5.0 (Update Release 1)

It is up to marketing to decide.

EVALUATION Waiting on Marketing's decision. This will need to be addressed for Tiger. ###@###.### 2004-06-04 As part of this bug, we also need to address the ProductVersion msi property for update releases. ProductVersion does not support "_"'s, so "1.5.0_01" will not pass Windows 2000 Logo validation. ###@###.### 2004-06-08 We will also need to change the disk space requirements for when you click on the features. The 2 ISString.idt files need to be edited for this, as well as java.sun.com documentation. ###@###.### 2004-06-16 We also need to fix the hardcoded values in the jre amd64 Directory.idt table as part of this bug. ###@###.### 2004-08-16 We will also need to fix the registry key problems for the 64-bit installers. They still install into 1.5.0. The names will be: J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 1 J2SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 1 ###@###.### 2004-09-15
