Oracle retires licence for distributing its Java with Linux
With a brief news item, Oracle has retired the "Operating System Distributor License for Java" (DLJ) that was created by Sun in 2006. The non-free licence had allowed Linux distributors to package and distribute Sun's, and later Oracle's, Java versions in their Linux distributions. Sun made this licence available after releasing Java as open source at the JavaOne conference in 2006. It was designed to ensure that users had easy access to packages containing the well-tested Sun Java during the development of the free OpenJDK.
