now paul's on the case and there seems to be the necessary momentum, i don'
t see why this should happen pretty quickly. other than merging in the latest contributions from jon and improving the documentation, what needs to be done to be able to for a 0.1 release?

(caveat: I am going on holiday and so may not be able to argue my case, SO...IF this is a blocking vote AND I am the only -1 AND at least 5 1's are received in favour THEN please treat this as a non-blocking -0)
Reasoning for -1:
I believe that promotion to commons proper should only happen when a sandbox project is close to release. Commons proper represents successful projects, and I define success by a release. [attributes] is not yet in that state.
However, there is a clear need for more developers and work, and volunteers appear to exist.
In fact, the issue with both [attributes] and [math] is an unwillingness to let new committers in to work just in the sandbox. I propose that the commons charter needs to be changed to allow this.
To prevent 'sourceforgization' of the sandbox, I propose that
- there must be at least one existing Apache committer on a sandbox project
- non-Apache people cannot create a new sandbox component, an Apache committer must create it first
- all commons must vote on accepting a new committer

So that we can add some more committers to the commons-attributes projects to help unify the various attribute-replated projects out there (initially commons-attributes and Nanning but maybe eventually attrib4j too) I'd like to propose we promote commons-attributes to the commons proper. Then we can work on merging the code bases and patches and working towards an alpha release.
