Jochen,
First of all, the current beta license prohibits you from redistributing any part
of the RI. The beta release is evaluation-only. Please see bullets 2.0 "Limited
License" and 3.0 "License Restrictions" in docs/JAXBv1.0.pBeval.119645.html of your
beta release for more detail.
When JAXB 1.0 FCS ships, there will be an entirely new license that will define the
rules for redistributing JAXB. I can't give you more detail than that because I
haven't seen the license yet.
I realize I haven't specifically addressed all of your questions, but that is all
the information I currently have available.
