Can the maven-upload-plugin be used in a open source project?

I was working on a Maven project and was looking for a plugin which could
upload some documentation to some remote location. While searching this
mailing list i came across the maven-upload-plugin which is hosted at 
http://repository.atlassian.com/maven2/com/atlassian/maven/plugins/maven-upload-plugin/1.1/
http://repository.atlassian.com/maven2/com/atlassian/maven/plugins/maven-upload-plugin/1.1/ 

Its exactly what i was looking for. But is that plugin meant to be used in a
open source project? I am curious since the plugin is hosted at a *.com
domain. Any inputs?

David, Tim and Dan - extremely sorry about this delayed reply. I actually
read these replies immediately when you posted but since it was too late in
the night, i just rushed home with replying and forgot about this until
today :)

David and Tim, thanks for explaining the licenses to me - that helped.

Dan, thanks for pointing me to the moved plugin. I will give it a try.

atlassian has moved this plugin to codehaus and become
wagon-maven-plugin which can do both download and upload

As the plugin inherits [1] from the Atlassian public parent pom [2] that 
defines the license as BSD you should be ok.

You should ask atlassian what are de licensing terms for this artifacts.
Anyway, it's not because a plugin is commercial or closed source that
it's use is incompatible with an open source project. What you can't do
without atlassian authorisation is distribute their plugin, but as long
as it's them distributing it, you are not impacted by licensing. What
could be a problem to you is if atlassian stop distributing it :)
The opensource nature of a project related to the distribution licences
and execution of this project, not to it's build process. If you want to
create an open source project that request an expensive development
suite to be build, you can do it, you will just have more trouble
finding developper in te open source communities :)
