Your wrong.  Read the J2EE license.  The CDs include JDK/JRE which I'm 
willing to declair as proprietary.  When Sun actually makes the Java2 spec 
a standard without pulling out again at the last minute then I'll 
reconsider this position.  And when RH says JDK/JRE, I'm fairly sure they 
mean the True Blue, licensed to IBM/RH by Sun JDK/JRE and not 
jikes/kaffe/etc.

Btw, what ever happened to the RH "Jolt Project" web pages?
