Oracle this week made Oracle JDK "available for free," for personal, commercial and production use, including quarterly security updates, for a limited time. "Free" in this context means the software is now licensed under the Oracle No-Fee Terms and Conditions (NFTC) license, having been previously under the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) License Agreement for Oracle Java SE. But "free" does not mean developers may do as they please. Oracle's NFTC forbids redistribution of its Java software for a fee. "Free" also does not mean the NFTC license conforms with the Free Software Definition or the Open Source Definition, both of which require allowing fee-based distribution.
