Can you give any reasons for that ?

The problem is growing its commmunity and improving a bit the code
and usability.

The reason I proposed jakarta-commons is that it's the best place
where this can happen. If Sam is not afraid of losing control over
gump ( which may happen in j-c ), than I can't see any reason to
not have it in j-c.

Is 'relinquishing' control a problem ? If the 'bashing' results in
finding problems and improving gump - or even increasing awarness - 
then it's should be welcomed.

I think the real issue is where to host gump's code - i.e. the xslt and
java code.
