Isn't this missing the whole point of the current licensing discussion? If we cook up a system that allows us to create and distribute cocoon but that product now cannot be used to build a commercial application without questions of further license requirements (source code availability, etc.) have we served our users well?
That's exactly the problem I have with this library system. Isn't Apache stuff that common because of its ease of use? I don't want to do license checking for every dependent project I get from somewhere. Moving this to the users is just a poor move and should be avoided if possible. It's not just about downloading one more JAR.
