Please correct me if I am wrong, but I would assume that the Java JVM
by default will be Gnu's.
Therefore Java + Ant + Tomcat using the proposed packages at
http://people.redhat.com/gbenson/naoko/ will work out of the box
without having to install a non-free Java runtime or dev kit..
What ever happens this is excellent news to have Ant + Tomcat packages
distributed for Fedora and in core in near future.
Cheers,
Michael
