Does the ASF and the FSF not get along?
Philosophically Yes!
The FSF philosophy is that software is a right. The Apache philosophy
is basically give credit where credit is due, but your programs that
are derived from ASL software need not be free, and may be commercial
works. Sort of a socialism

Sorry for sounding newbie about this, but what exactly are the political
difficulties to hosting LGPL and ASL projects on the apache.org domain.

Hi Ricardo.. Sounds like you are working on something I've been wanting for
a long time! At any rate.. I believe there is a
ConfigurationRuntimeException that you could throw, even though it's not
part of the API.
I think the reason that most of the gets don't throw an exception is because

Of course, I was going to release it anyway so please find the
source-code attached. Not sure it belongs in commons-configration API;
probably better contributed to the hibernate project.

I don't want to sound harsh, but what is the added value of using
Hibernate here for such a simple data structure ? A direct JDBC
implementation is good enough and spare a 1.5MB dependency.

Correct.
I'll work to resolve the lack of published information. It's more than
just LGPL really, we need a page that lists all acceptable
OSI-accepted licences. LGPL is just the biggest issue as it's probably
the 2nd most common open-source Java licence behind BSD-like.
As far as the FUD/IANAL
