Hi, I hope that I have understood this wrong, but if one reads the SCSL license when downloading sources needed to compile native FreeBSD JDK 1.4, the attachment "C" that tells about "internal deployment use" says: "INTERNAL DEPLOYMENT USE This Attachment C is only effective for the Technology specified in Attachment B, upon execution of Attachment D (Commercial Use License) including the requirement to pay royalties." Doesn't this mean that I cannot use the native 1.4 JDK for anything real without getting commercial license ? If so, the native 1.4 jdk is useless - one has to use diablo-jdk 1.3 (no hotspot....) or linux jdk (is this stable with emulation). Please, please correct me if I'm wrong.
