Cayenne might be better suited for TLP status, which I suggest
considering as the DB project is starting to balloon =)
That said, I am very willing to support Cayenne personally, and
suspect the rest of the DB PMC might be supportive as well. It would
fit well in the DB project conceptually (which historically is more
about database access than databases). I just am trying to go with
the TLP preference vibe going around, and that Cayenne has been
around a while I don't want to cramp their style.
So, I'm very happy to help mentor (the Official Incubator Role and
the actual verb, as it relates to working within Apache) Cayenne, and
would love to see this work out! It may be worth pinging the Tapestry
folks as well as I have seen a lot of Cayenne use within the Tapestry
community, and they are an energetic bunch.

Why do they want to come to Apache?

Thanks Thomas,
Would the DB PMC be willing to sponsor moving Cayenne (http://
www.objectstyle.org/cayenne/) to Apache?
I have been following the cayenne community for some time and they
seem to do things the 'apache way'. They use the apache license
already so the IP part of it should be straightforward. I've also
been chatting with the lead/founder of the project about a move.
The community is interested as well. I am asking because the
community is not well connected to apache and they were not sure
who in the community to get in contact with.
If there is anything I can do to help please let me know. I'd be
glad to get the Cayenne community involved in the discussion if
there is interest from this PMC.
Thanks again,

Hi Bill,
I think using this account to reach the pmc is OK.
So what do you want to know?

Hi,
Is this where I'd find the DB project PMC?
I have a couple of quick questions but don't want to spam the
wrong list.
Thanks!
