I think Mark has put it rather well.

The Jini community want a water cooler to gather around. We would be happy if 
that is the Apache Jini project, and we are happy that such project is both 
the steward of the specs as well as providing implementations of some or all 
of those specs.

To be clear, the current Jini Starter Kit contains implementations for some of 
the specifications, and they are all named without the "Jini monopolization", 
e.g. The Jini Discovery & Lookup specification is implemented by Reggie, the 
Jini Distributed Transaction specification is implemented by Mahalo, and so 
on.

Having these as subprojects in "Apache Jini" makes a great deal more sense to 
me, than trying to break them out in one or many separate projects. I am sure 
the community will be listing alternate implementations as well, and maybe 
invite competition as well.


Cheers
Niclas
