Hi Jim, Thank you for your email. This talk has been pulled from the schedule (with Rich's approval). The schedule had just gone up on the website less than an hour ago, and while I think anyone on the program committee had seen it prior to this, nobody else has. It has also been removed from the news release going out tomorrow morning.

"The Apache Foundation is fantastic and it works for many projects, but we thought for this specific project -- which we want to be an industry standard that a lot vendors work on together -- this was the right approach."
