Yes, they have everything the equivalent from Sun have - for non-free stuff 
like Java they just distribute the tools needed to create your own rpms. They 
don't have J2EE 1.4 ready yet, but the SJSAS binary installer from Sun 
installs fine over J2SE from jpackage.

You can also use yum or apt with them, so you can do things like:

# apt-get install jboss

Which is by far the easiest way to get new java software on your system.
