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.
