not aware of any such policy.
All I can say is that with Ubuntu you can pick vendor drivers and Sun
Java 1.5 from the software management tool and you almost never have to
worry about conflicts among packages from the different repositories.
If you meant proprietary drivers, just say it. "vendor drivers" is
confusing since several of the drivers in the kernel and xorg are vendor
supported and developed and available in the repository without conflicts.
