As Laurent says: >>As for the statement "the entire company is focused on our BB10 delivery", it was meant only to highlight that moving Ripple to Apache may take a bit longer to do as a result, not that there was any less commitment to Ripple from our site. Quite the contrary.<<
We are all very committed and I will help Laurent and the team to make it happen as quickly as possible, but the execs and legl and others have questions and some things may happen a bit slower than we want.

This was many years ago, so if this is an obsolete structure, I am fine. The reason for the thinking though was simply that Ripple would have a strong "Cordova" support in terms of API emulation and relate closely to that project. We can of course discuss this in the community to figure out the best option. Any reason why sub-projects are frowned upon? As for the statement "the entire company is focused on our BB10 delivery", it was meant only to highlight that moving Ripple to Apache may take a bit longer to do as a result, not that there was any less commitment to Ripple from our site.

The ASF does not encourage sub-projects. I'd like to hear why the proposal for this to be a subproject of Cordova rather than a podling in its own right? I'm also a little concerned about the statement "and the entire company is focused on our BB10 delivery." This implies that RIM is no longer interested in actively developing the code. The ASF is not a place for code-dumps. However, it is entirely possible that I'm reading too much into that half-sentence, it is also possible that there is sufficient momentum behind the project to make it a viable community without RIM.
