I just looked at this license - unfortunately it has a GPL like clause:

 * 3. Redistributions in any form must be accompanied by information on
 *    how to obtain complete source code for the DB software and any
 *    accompanying software that uses the DB software.

So a company that wanted to base their product on Solr would then have
to go and buy a license from Oracle.  Not nice, and we should avoid
IMO.

Other licenses like LGPL would be OK I think - we can't
store/distribute in Apache, but it doesn't force users to give away
the store either.
