Well, I’m open to suggestions. I could invite other folks to the repository to 
see what we’re doing. I could also make it public. I could also port the code 
over to the main Apache git repository.

I’m kind of hesitant to do the last option right now, because I can’t really 
afford the time it would take me to do that right now… It’s going to be quite a 
bit of work merging the code back.
