I'm getting to close to project completion, and I would like to make my code open source, releasing it under GPLv2 or Apache, something of that ilk. However, I had read somewhere that there is no free implementation of Java Swing, and so code depending on swing couldn't be released under those licenses. Is this true? And if so, what lice...
