Hmm.. IIRC I remember dicussions held at Apache Con in Las Vegas where the
general expectation was that a PMC *is* responsible for the code
at least concerning licensing issues (Jakarta being to big for code
oversight of the PMC). This is one of the reasons why this restructuring
of ASF projects (promoting sub project like Cocoon and Avalon as top
level projects) takes place.

That doesn't negate what I was trying to communicate. The PMC is responsible for legal issues--which is essentially a community issue. We all are responsible for making sure that the code and JARs stored in the CVS is compatible with ASF licensing (in the code example it has to be ASF license...).

All I was saying is that the PMC does not direct the technical
direction of the Cocoon project.
