J2EE stuff has a different license than the JDK. I've been told conflicting things about what you can distribute. Most of it sounds bogus. I've read the license but you can read it a few different ways. Basically I would think provided you do not extend the APIs (not meaning the keyword extends...) you should be fine as long as you don't distribute any components of the J2EE.
