Java License

Does anyone know where I can find a list of Java technologies, which are free for commercial usage? From Sun web site, it looks like that J2SE, J2EE and J2ME are free.

I’m thinking about using JAI (Java Advanced Image) in my application, but do not know if JAI APIs are free. If they are not, how can I acquire the license from Sun ?

When you go to the download page for Sun Java APIs there is usually a license that you must agree to to get there. Just pretend to download JAI again and you should get the license display.

I think that JAI is distributable so long as it is not modified. Check the license to be sure.
