I spoke with a gentleman in our legal department today. In short, I
am clear of Sun's Research Use license as Java and JVM related
development has not been and will not be part of my duties. I have
also spoken with my manager, who sees no problem in excluding me from
any potential future Java related projects. 

Moreover, there is no question that JIT and JVM/JIT integration work
that I do can be asserted as "clean room", because NAI is not in
possession of any Sun JIT technology. Now that I have specifically 
arranged through my management to NOT participate in any present or
future work with Sun's intellectual property, I am clear of any
contracts the company may subsequently enter into.

I'm willing to state this "publicly" on sablevm-user if you would
like.
