Bleh, blackdown has the same license as the sun jdk, plus more for the ibm
parts. Kaffe's only for java 1.1. GCJ is very incomplete.

Grr, this really needs java for ultimate coolness factor.

The parts that mainly worry me from Sun's public license are, from part B
of SUPPLEMENTAL LICENSE TERMS:
    (i) you distribute the Software complete and unmodified (unless
otherwise specified in the applicable README file) and only bundled as
part of, and for the sole purpose of running, your Programs, (ii) the
Programs add significant and primary functionality to the Software,

Although, if I include Netbeans, which is freely distributable under the
SPL, I should be able to include the java sdk, since it's for the purpose
of running netbeans. Yes?
