On 2001-11-12 Sun Microsystems, Inc. voted Abstain with the following comment:
The effort behind JSR-001 is longstanding,
predating the JCP.  While there have been efforts
to bring it in line with the spirit of the JCP
as that evolved, there remain aspects that do 
not align with the JCP.

For instance, the apparent fact that the RI 
license does not permit commercial use of the RI
or its derivatives is contrary to the expectations
of most JCP participants, for whom an RI is 
typically more than just a proof of concept.  The
TCK, while adequate in many areas, is known to
have holes in its coverage, with well-understood
consequences.  The TCK is proposed to be licensed
under the Community Public License.  A
CPL-licensed TCK leaves the door open for
derivative TCKs that could confuse users and
threaten WORA by raising the question whether an
implementation is "more than compatible".  To the
extent portions of the RI are licensed under CPL,
inadequate protection is given for stability
within the Java platform name space.

Sun recognizes the great efforts and progress of
the EG, and does not want to stand in the way of
progress in this space.  But it has also
consistently made its concerns known, and does 
not want future JSRs to model themselves after the
above elements of this special case.
