I don't see why the generating code needs to be released.  CloudStack doesn't 
incorporate it.   Also, GPL and other tools are used all the time in the 
development of ASF code...

Anthony, can you comment on this?  The question goes back to Mike's earlier 
question:

Mike, the community wants to get an Apache CloudStack release out "quickly" and 
from what I know of XenServer product timelines they would not qualify as 
"quick".  So I'd request that Citrix do a release of the XenServerJava library 
outside the XenServer release framework.   This could even be a re-release of 
whatever CloudStack is currently using.
