(One
the Red Hat employees pointed out they are now the
4th largest
Java company" since the purchase of JBoss, though
that's server

Fedora doesn't even come with java in the iso. I guess your info
is totally wrong.
Fedora doesn't ship with Java for the same reason many distros choose
not to... its perceived "non-freeness". Certainly all the Red Hat
dudes we work with in the GNOME community are pretty Java-friendly,
and especially towards their paying RHEL customers. (They're
particularly keen on gcj, or were for a while anyway.)
