Hi,
the following license conditions (from 6.1.2-1's d/copyright) look quite
non-free as they restrict how the program may be modified:
----
[...] You
may copy and extend functionality (but may not remove functionality)
of the Interface Definition Language CFE without charge, but you are
not authorized to license or distribute it to anyone else except as
part of a product or program developed by you or with the express
written consent of Sun Microsystems, Inc. ("Sun").
----
----
You may copy, modify, distribute, or sublicense the LICENSED PRODUCT
without charge as part of a product or software program developed by
you, so long as you preserve the functionality of interoperating with
the Object Management Group's "Internet Inter-ORB Protocol" version
one. However, any uses other than the foregoing uses shall require
the express written consent of Sun Microsystems, Inc.
----
There's also a license allowing only educational and commercial use, but no
redistribution or modification:
----
All of the files in these directories are copyright Addison Wesley,
and they come with absolutely no warranty whatsoever. Permission is
hereby granted to use these programs for educational or commercial
purposes.
