Java items require a contract and permission to ship from each of the vendors (IBM, BEA, Sun).

With the application itself licensing is also involved, but that seems to be limited in some ways. Blech... every time I have had to deal with this in the past... the lawyers have to work it out first.
Considering we dont have any lawyers, what would the next step be ?
I'm sending a bcc to Monica Pawlin at Sun. She has some involvement with Java, I'm hoping she can refer this to someone at Sun who matters.
We have corresponded wrt Java and Blackboys (they're trees) before, and she told be about the Sun/Ubuntu announcement.
Monica, I think you don't have a working email address for me, you certainly can't reach this one. summer js.id.au will do.
