Hi Folks,

Can IcedTea be used to run non-free (i.e.proprietary) software? We lease 
out computers to customers, which run linux, and wish to include the 
FOSS IcedTea, however our Java application is non-free, so I was wonder 
if there were any licensing issues that I'd need to be aware of?

I'm ok with the normal GPL stuff (Give out source code, don't restrict 
distribution for IcedTea and other GPL applications etc..)

Thanks,

Jonny
