>>>I had to go do some reading on the CPL. Actually GCJ could include SWT 
and still stay under GPL as long as the CPL parts are in binary format 
(jar files, shared libs, etc) according to section 3 of the CPL version 
1.0. Now, if SwingWT was under GPL it could be used to replace the 
existing AWT and Swing classes in GCJ and thus give GCJ multiplatform 
AWT and Swing and remain under GPL. 
Now I could have just missed something in the license. Has anyone seen 
anything that prevents this?
