It might seem that COMPAQ has made a rather (lots-of-money) fair deal
with SUN, forcing them to withdraw any such licences so there will be
no competition ?
[And rather off-topic:]
It also indicates that SUN is rather scared of the fact that Linux
outruns their Slowlaris by far on most tasks not involving I/O and
that's why they haven't ported JDK to Linux themselves (yet).
