Does this mean that we shoot for JDK 1.3 now? :-)

It really does!
Mike, tell your JVM folks they're doing a simply amazingly great job to
make Java successful.
The whole Java community thanks IBM very much for this!

Well... It's like the first JDK-1.1.8 license... As soon as the JCK test
will be completed, I'm sure they will remove the termination...

I checked on this with the Linux JVM folks at IBM, and here's what I learned:
The standard GA license for the 1.1.8 release from IBM enables a developer to include the
runtime environment and redistribute it without any termination date.
The Linux 1.3 Preview on Alphaworks *does* have a license that contains the 90 day
clause. For a preview, they don't want developers distributing the preview (it has not
officially passed the JCK), or using it post GA (general availability, basically the
official Final Version Ship Date).
They tell me that the GA version will be made available before the 90 days runs out. All
of IBM's GA licenses, including the Linux 1.1.8 license, do NOT contain any type of 90-day
clause.
Hope this helps!

??? The IBM JDK 1.1.8 doesn't have any such restriction on it. It did when
it was in pre-release which is totally understandable just like their
pre-release of JDK 1.3.
Check the license again - it says right in it:
"This Program Code is a "no charge" program."

yeah, but the license is only good for 90 days for personal,
non-commercial end use. fat lot of good that does me, unfortunately.
AFAIK, that's the same deal as the license for their 1.1.8, which is why I
haven't been able to use it in production anywhere.

OK, it's *FAST* - Faster than Sun's 1.2.2 on my 400MhZ P2
Redhat 6.2 Laptop. Fresh build (104 Sources) to Cocoon.jar in 36
seconds. Compared to the Sun Linux 1.2.2 JDK at 61 seconds.
This new jit seems to scream as well.
Sweet. I love IBM some days...
