I clearly missed a news story. Pivotal are a major sponsor of the event,
but I was unaware of the surrounding circumstances. Jim, I'm in the
OHare airport right now, but I'll call you in the morning if that works
for you.

Especially considering that such an "expert" also had this
to say:
"Sometimes, when [a project is taken over] by the Apache Foundation,
it leads to some strange behaviors in terms of hiring committers, etc,"
Watters said. "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." [1]
WTF?
