Do we have to make it more clear in the policy. My definition of the words is the following. java-virtual-machine => the virtual machine part of the runtime environment. javaX-runtime => The javaX core classes of the runtime environment. The java runtime as per sun's definition is both of them, i.e. javaX-runtime and java-virtual-machine. Do I have to clarify that in policy?
