Hi Vincent,
I don't see an issue here - we just need the jars to compile Cactus, we
don't need to redistribute them, right? If so, I think we're fine with
JBoss jars (we just need to change our build to not redistribute them)...
Regarding the Geronime option, that would be another interesting
alternative, specially if we decide to drop J2EE 1.2 support.

Not really... :-) There are specs (i.e. paper) provided by Sun but different
organizations can implement them. Apache is one and they do for example for
the Servlet/JSP specs but also for the J2EE ones (in Geronimo). The apache
code is licensed under the ASL.
The required j2ee-related jar files are available from the maven repo, or
from sun.com.
Not really. The Sun J2EE jar is NOT redistributable (this means it has to be
downloaded by each person from the sun web site and that person has to view
and approve the license). This is because the Sun license requires this.
The JBoss J2EE jar is indeed redistributable (that's why it's on ibiblio)
but under a LGPL license which means it cannot be redistributed by an ASL
project.
