Btw, is there a way to make Savannah requests somewhat more
prioritary?  The reason is that Savannah acts as a proxy for
address@hidden during project approvals.

As for the issue at hand, I would be surprised if licensing@ didn't
have an answer. J2EE application servers are a pretty standard way to
host Java applications for the web, through a defined API, although
they share the same user-space. This is much like running a script on
Apache+PHP, so I don't think there will be an issue, but it still
would be nice to get educated confirmation.
