Well I know even in the JCP EC nobody cares about the API any more, it's a "black hole" between the written document "Spec" and the RI/TCK, so from JSR to JSR some interpret it as a manifestation of the Spec, hence the JCP Spec License applies to "javax.annotation" even if they did not explicitly mention it. Those are just a bunch of annotations anyway and the dormant JSR failed to produce a RI or TCK so far.
However, since the only "standard implementations" look like e.g. the FindBugs project http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/ that clearly states it's under LGPL, so in the absence of a true RI for this unfinished JSR that seems the case.
