I am forced to retire the jogl package because parts of it are licensed 
under the SGI Free Software License B, which is not actually a Free 
Software license as per the FSF, and is explicitly not allowed in Fedora.

The code in question is java code derived from SGI's OpenGL reference 
implementation (presumably in C).

I've alerted the upstream jogl maintainers in this thread:
