For Java, this does not work because Maven fetches precompiled JARs, whereas
we need our software to be built from source. (You are not allowed to bundle
precompiled JARs even if you download them beforehand or they are even
included in the upstream tarball.) It is an essential requirement for a Free
Software distribution that all software it ships is built from source.

For those, please see Nicolas Mailhot's reply.
