More on open source Java ME
This note from Terrence Barr at Sun clarifies the most important question developers have had about what this means for third-party applications running on top of Java ME:
We believe that any Java ME code which is independent of the Java ME platform implementation and is distributed separately from the Java ME platform implementation and merely uses the functionality of the platform but does not extend or modify the platform should not be considered a derivative or combined work of the platform and as such is not impacted by the platform license.
