Yup. This seems concordant with most of the GPL exception clauses on
generated output. That is fine, we don't prohibit through use of GPL for
target architecture buildable tarballs of sources, so long as the consumers
of those source tarballs are not imposed restrictions beyond the AL 2.0.

Lets just imagine if Jim, VP Legal is actually correct in his
interpretation, and that there are no AL 2.0 licenses applicable to our
source code repositories,
yet.
You still didn't comment on the license under which the repository is
licensed, so this wasn't a terribly helpful post.

Understand there is a radical difference between majority, consensus and
unanimity. The HTTP Server project has successfully operated by unanimity,
although many of us have experience of having the single holdout block progress.
I don't believe majority is sufficient in these sorts of matters.
This seems very odd to me, certainly unusual among Apache projects.
The -dev and -user lists (and even general@incubator) are used to announce that
a release candidate is available and should be tested for readiness to become
an actual release. Some projects use differently-numbered alpha and bet
