In a previous job I used to track the Debian testing release for my 
workstation, I was doing sysadmin and development stuff (but not Java). 
It had a nice balance of stability and features - not as cutting-edge as 
Fedora but loads more stable. I'd be using it now if we weren't a Red 
Hat house here.
