Thanks very much for letting us know. > > I generally release my code under the New BSD license, and unless you > would like to host this port on Apache's site I am going to open a > SourceForge project for my port, or simply host it on my own site, > http://www.lostcreations.com. Having a "c#" commons at Apache would be a nice idea. However practically, it would be a lot of work. Websites would need to be set up, mailing lists, etc. And proper "project management" of the code would be awkward; it would be difficult to find enough existing apache committers interested/qualified to review c# code and "bootstrap" a c# community here. Apache is not a "sourceforge"; ASF projects strive to have good levels of quality control and provide long-term support for code it releases, but that does mean that getting new projects started is harder. So for the moment, I would suggest setting up your project elsewhere, but using the APL2.0 license. At some time in the future, if enough c# interest builds up here then we could possibly talk about a merger. In the meantime, as mentioned by another poster, it would be great if you could add a note on the wiki pointing at your project.
