I guess there is also the issue of license. Currently the annotation  
processor
uses the Apache License (version 2). Partly out of historic reasons, since  
in
the beginnings it was a prototype for Sun and partly out of the idea that  
using
APL would make it easier for IDE/Tools to make use of it. So in order to  
integrate
it into Core we would have to change that.

Somehow having a separate project seems wrong given the very specific  
problem
the tool solves. Thoughts?
