Here's a +1 from someone who's committed to Xerces-J and xml-commons. If either project didn't want to move up to the latest standard API's, that sure would be an interesting situation. :) > If that's the case, then I don't think we need to go through the full > incubation process (Noel - thoughts appreciated!) - we only need a code > grant from Sun (we can't take something into our repository until we are > sure we have appropriate legal rights to do so) + someone needs to fill > out the incubation docs to show that everything is AOK. As I've argued before, it seems to me that this is a case where some Apache committers have simply gone away for a while, developed some code based on the Apache projects to which they have commit privileges, and now have reached a point where they can commit the code back. It's not a case where a new component is being added; simply where a rather large update is being undertaken. But I'm no lawyer, so I have no allusions that this argument will actually count for anything. :) But given the apparent unanimity in the communities about this being a good thing, and the fact this thread's been pretty quiet the last couple of days, it would be nice to get some status on when the granting/incubating formalities might be done with.
