My reading is yes, although I did this initially with 1.2.2 and I'm
still alive :).  Its fairly simple to set up something like I have
for the 1.2.2 patches which requires people to agree to the SCSL
before downloading them.  This makes sure that everybody is happy.

I hadn't actually noticed Sun had now released the 1.3 code for other
than Windows till now!
