Kind regards Andre It's only copyrighted by Oracle if you use Oracle's Java implementation but if you reference OpenJDK then there shouldn't be any problems. But as explained above there aren't any in this case anyway since Oracle's implementation is based on something with a fine license. Except that OpenJDK is L-GPL (AFAICS), so that it can't be changed to Apache in the process.
