I'm confused. None of the other PMC members has expressed whether he or she
want's the see Chimera/crypto joining Apache Commons, yet we're already
discussing how JNI bindings should be handled.

I'd like to see:
1) a clear statement whether Chimera/crypto should become part of Apache
Commons. Do we need a vote for that?
2) Discuss a plan on how to do that (I've described a possible plan [1])
3) After that is clear: discuss design details regarding the component.

Thanks! :-)
