Lets not count our chickens here. The LGPL policy is still in the

No, because we want to be able to distribute complete tested
implementations of J2SE, right? :)
Of course we should lobby for more freedom.
I won't take that bait :0
But the main thing is to make sure there are no roadblocks for
collaboration between the different free sofware projects.
Indeed! That's why I'm so certain that interoperability of modules
and componentization will be so beneficial for us.
If the board really refuses to allow us to distributed a fully
integrated system containing all parts we can always put the whole
collection up somewhere else. But we will cross that bridge when we
get
there. Lets first put together the whole system.
Someone can always take the various works and post somewhere else,
but we'll distribute what we test, and we won't be able to use Apache
TCKs to test something we're not distributing from here.
