Unfortunately only a few parts of Java 3D were released under a free 
license. The core javax.media.j3d and javax.vecmath packages are only 
available under the JDL/JRL licenses which are non-free, I presume. 
However, the example programs and com.sun.j3d.* packages were released 
under BSD license, so we could perhaps consider using those if they 
proved to be useful.

Note that there is already a free implementation of javax.vecmath:
