Java is GPLv2. However, Sun is using the "classpath exception" which
allows you to license your application any way you want independent
of the GPL status of the libraries you link against.

I have a big question regarding Java. Now that Java is a GPL, does
that mean if I do something in Java, that I have to make my app a
