Looking at
http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=222, it's past public
review period. So the next step is proposed final draft review, and I
think it will start very soon. If PFD completes without any significant
problem, it will go final at the end of the review period (or something
like that.)
So I think it's sometime early next year.

The latest codebase is covered under CDDL (this I can say with much
confidence.)
And I think CDDL allows you to build a production services on top of it,
re-distribute it, or modify the RI source code (this I say with much
less confidence --- I should read CDDL some day.) If my understanding is
correct (which I'm not very confident), I don't see any legal problem in
using JAXB RI 2.0 as it is today.
You should read CDDL yourself and see if it allows you to do so or not.

But beware, as we've been making changes since EA2...
