Whats the standing regarding Suns "Community Source License"? JDK
1.2.2 is released under that license as source. The FreeBSD people

Hmm, see section 2. in the "Supplemental Terms" here:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/j2sdk-1_3-license.html
Its a bunch of legalese, but to me it sounds as if redistributing it
would be possible.
Apart from that, what about including the parts that are definetely
Open Source anyway, like all the stuff from the Apache Software
Foundation (ASF)?
