I believe we would need to go through the *short-form* incubator
process (i.e. IP clearance) rather than the full-blown project
incubation:

http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html

...but otherwise I agree with Martin - once the appropriate IP
clearance forms have been processed thru' the incubator, then it could
just come straight into the sandbox.
