ApacheDS is not upgradable. Because, it and its dependencies

There are, also, some Secutity issues[2] , of which it is not clear that the
packages available will be affected.

AIUI the OSGi specification license covers the *specification* -- not *implementations* of that specification.

If what you say is correct, then we would not be able to ship Eclipse. Fortunately for us, the Eclipse Equinox implementation of the OSGi specification is licensed under EPL.)
