From https://code.google.com/p/collide/:

Requires
    Client: recent Chrome or Safari
    Server: Java 7 JRE
    Build: Java 7 JDK, Ant 1.8.4+; all other build dependencies are bundled in.

It's possible that the first requirement is really more of an official recommendation from Google, but it's nasty that they recommend two non-free ones.

And the server requirements are also (at least partly) non-free, IIRC. I'm very willing to be proven wrong on that front. We may be able to use openjdk-7-* as drop-in replacements, but I don't know how nicely they'll play together.

Then again, it does seem like a lot less work to run Collide, if we can do it with Chromium and OpenJDK.
