On 2009-02-04 Apache Software Foundation voted Yes with the following comment:
The ASF thanks the spec lead for confirming there will be no FOU or other extra-JSPA conditions in the TCK license for this JSR
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On 2009-02-05 Intel Corp. voted Yes with the following comment:
This is a general comment we make in each ballot  By the agreement that forms the JCP, other than reciprocity rules for licensing and three compatibility conditions (including passing the TCK test suite) "the Spec Lead agrees not to impose any contractual condition or covenant that would limit or restrict the right of any licensee to create or distribute such Independent Implementations." The Apache Foundation claims in an open letter that they have been unable to obtain a TCK License that does not restrict compatible implementations of the SE Platform (additional restrictions that are not in the  specification itself). 

The Spec Lead for this JSR says there are no field of use restrictions on how compatible implementations can be used.

On 2009-02-06 Keil, Werner voted Yes with the following comment:
but please fix the TYPO (Porlet) in the JSR name!

I guess individual members like myself who still write or deal with code themselves seem to be the only ones to discover such mistake ?!;-)

On 2009-02-09 IBM voted Yes with the following comment:
IBM's vote is based on the technical merits of this JSR and is not a vote on the licensing terms.  IBM supports licensing models that create an open and level playing field by allowing third parties to create independent implementations of Java Specifications and that do not allow individuals or companies to exercise unnecessary control for proprietary advantage.  We support open source as a licensing model for contributions in the JCP, and would hope others will support this direction. This comment is not necessarily directed at the current business or license terms for this JSR, however, it is a statement of IBM's preferred licensing model.
