Sun's Binary Code license permits bundling as part of your Programs. The short form of this: you can include such things in tars and zips for your release, but for individually download. In other words, users need not feel the pain, but developers do.


First, I understand it as *not* for individually download, just bundled in a single archive.


Second, in jetspeed, David removed activation.jar some time ago (I think because of those issues). But I have reviewed our repo just now, and we still have mail.jar, which, I think, we should remove also. (Sun Binary Code License).

If you confirm, I will take care that it is removed from the repository (being careful to make sure we don't break build procedures, updating docs, etc.)
