It's not the same JAR as it also contains binary classes, but it contains the same source (in OSGI-OPT) and license file. But the catch is that in order to get to download page [1], I had to agree to non-free license at [2]. The subsequent page contains links to both the specification documents and code. The JAR contains no further references to that bad license and only includes ASL and mentions ASL in about.html and file headers. Based on that, I believe the bad license covers only the specification documents, not the code. Note that the same interfaces/classes (well, different versions/subsets thereof, otherwise I wouldn't be packaging this) also have to be included in every OSGi implementation, such as felix or equinox, which are considered free and included in Fedora.
