Hey folks. I've been reading the article on freshmeat about KDE and the
QPL. I was thinking... is it legal to distribute Java applications under
the GPL, since they will undoubtably link to the proprietary APIs of
sun's JDK. I understand there's some leeway given to the standard
libraries like libc, but the JDK is almost world - kitchen sink.
Thoughts, comments, flames?
