The lawyers for the company that I work for says that most of us cannot download anything that is Java Community Process as it could potentially bind any software that we write to Sun. So, there is a special group of engineers that participate that I belive are isolated from other people at the co. that I work for so that it can comply. The rest of us can only download binary licence things from Sun. I'm a big Java fan as I want to use Linux for more things, but MS monopoly makes it hard. Sun should remember this. |
