The license on the jck.dev.java.net site says you can only use those for 
reading.  As you say that is the ReadOnly JCK.  For a runnable JCK there 
is a different newer program.

http://openjdk.java.net/groups/conformance/

There's a page for some .jti files ..

http://openjdk.java.net/guide/jckAcquisition.html

This page will eventually tell you how to acquire the JCK.

In the meantime those FAQ pages appear to be the information you're seeking.

There is a special license to use for access to a runnable JCK for the 
usage as you say.  I believe the FAQ will answer your questions.
