Kudos to everybody who's working on the 1.1.5 port. My question is about the Sun's license of the binaries and its restrictions on distribution. Suppose you're an integrator and you want to sell a FreeBSD box with Java 1.1.5 loaded on it. Is that breaking the license? I can never figure out Sun's licensing guidlines. Thanks, Omar
