Is the first (G1) garbage collector a “finished product” in Java 6?

Is G1 garbage collector still considered experimental in recent versions of Java (6)? Is it safe and ready to use?

EDIT : I mean Oracle JVM.

No, how to propose this Oracle article, it is still experimental . It will replace the CMS, but it seems that it is not yet fully functional: Relative performance of the Java First (G1) garbage collector?

EDIT:

So, now G1 is “fully supported” in JDK7u4 , it is no longer considered experimental, so I assume it's ready for production !

Java 6: Update 20.

Java 7: The original version has it.

In Oracle JVM, do you mean Sun HotSpot? This can be confused with JRockit. It is much preferable to call it HotSpot.
