Good afternoon.

[SIZE="2"]I have spent the past few weeks trying to get any factual statements/information on the following:[/SIZE]

  • May I _pre-install/build_ the jdk6 COLOR="Red"[/COLOR] into a public Ubuntu distro?
  • If I may, what are the stipulations that come with it?
  • What can I do/not do in regards to providing the jdk6 COLOR="Red"[/COLOR] in my distro as the _default_ java/jdk?
  • And *_any_* other information on what I might need to do regarding Sun/Oracle's: [COLOR="Red"]sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jdk[/COLOR]. *_That also_* could/would be in a public Ubuntu distro and be downloaded and used by others?

*I have found information* pertaining to this subject, _but_, very *"washy"* explanations and reasons. Mostly outdated. I want to comply with Ubuntu and any of Sun/Oracle's laws/bylaws/*etc*.

[SIZE="3"]Thank You[/SIZE] *in advance for _any help_ or _redirection_.*
