I've released this to the world because as far as I know no one has released a free Telnet protocol handler for Java(in the LGPL sense). NACSE has WebTerm but it requires a licensing agreement for commercial use. If you need telnet for a non-commercial use it might be the way to go. JTA is another good telnet which has also tried to separate the telnet protocol handler from the telnet client. But it is under the GPL license so you can not use it in commercial software. There are also commercial java based telnet programs in the world, but they usually don't let you at the source code for a reasonable fee.
