I'm not sure, but I think the license is still not sufficiently open for
inclusion in Core. It might be open enough for livna or (preferably)
JPackage.
Also, I don't think they provide a proper 64-bit or PPC package, whearas
Red Hat and friends are working on a stack that does, a stack that is
open.
