Not to mention that Maven is *already* an ASF project. And infrastructure is a pseudo-project, if you will :-) I believe the "output" of the project would fall under the auspices of the infrastructure team. If it "feels big" and/or infrastructure is hinky about taking it on, *then* we could find a different home.
