I removed them this morning and will remove any other JARs that are
brought to my attention. Sam named JAF, JavaMail and EJBs so I removed
those. I just got off the phone and I got a clear answer as to what
Apache could be liable for. If Maven, being an ASF piece of software, is
party to illegal assembly then the ASF could be liable. This I did not
think was the case as the JARs were not on ASF hardware but that doesn't
seem to matter. So the Sun violations can't happen anymore. Now we just
have to deal with LGPL and GPL issues.
