Line 67 ⟶ 71:
Despite widespread confusion, Blackdown was neither [[free software]] nor [[open-source software]]. It's binary redistribution policy allowed it to be pre-installed or included with many [[Linux distributions]] (e.g., [[Gentoo Linux]]), whereas at the time, Sun Java's binary redistribution policy did not. Since Java 5, the Operating System Distributor License for Java (DLJ) met many Linux distributions' requirements, lessening the demand for the older Blackdown JVM.
