There are a lot of hand made poms in the repo so i don't see that as a problem.
AFAIK the difference between api and implementation is the
dependencies section, so it's just a matter of copying it and strip
all unneded deps (all of them?).

Well, if we find a good place for it in svn and keep it minimal I don't
see why we couldn't. It would have to be handled completely manually though.
My guess is that the use case here is that they want to use
commons-logging-api as a dependency in their (Maven 2 built) project, so
they don't get all the transitive dependencies that the pom for
commons-logging currently has in it.

No good. I've known too many Spaniards.
