I did get sources for Juno-1.0.1, back in February of last year
(2002/02/10, to be exact!), and I even had it mostly working with
OSS(had to patch the code to bypass the HPF, and I couldn't use any
MIDI, but other than that it was basically working).  I had a few
brief communications with one of the authors and intended to
continue getting that package to work, but I unfortunately got
side-tracked with other things.

I haven't tried it at all since switching to an ALSA based system
(and my music workstation is currently busy with a Knoppix demo, or
I'd try it right now), but I do intend to get it compiled again, and
this time I might even be able to use a MIDI controller!  :-)

In the meantime, interested readers might want to check out Bristol,
(http://www.slabexchange.org/index.cgi?DOWNLOAD), mentioned in Dave
Phillips' "Softsynth Roundup" article (Thanks for that article, by
the way!).  It has a Juno mode which seems to work quite well, at
least as far as I can tell.  That package's primary benefit is that
is has numerous modes of operation (Juno, MiniMoog, Exporer,
Prophet-5, Prophet-10, B3, DX7, Vox Continental, and Rhodes; am I
missing any?) The drawback is that it's binary-only, but otherwise
apparently free to use.
