AFAIK, Caldera are the only independent licensors of Sun j2se code
outside of Blackdown so unless you got an rpm from them, technically
it's still illegal (i'm sure there are a couple of Redhat lurkers on
the list so we'll see how long it takes for my recollection to get
flamed :))

I have build j2se1.3 packages for woody & sid and made them available
to the rest of the Blackdown team (I'm a mostly inactive member) but
they've not yet made it to the Blackdown mirrors.  I don't know why;
they are probably waiting on potato packages as well.
