I'll second this. Maven is primarily for Java projects. I suspect it
might work for other systems but I suspect also it would be a can of
worms.

The posting on gene...@incubator was a misdirected request since I'm
relying on recollections of the incubator list traffic from a year
or so
ago. Involving someone who can speak with authority involved
would be
helpful, that was the intent, but the wrong way to go about it.
If existing code that is donated has to be cleared by the
Incubator (
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html) before being
merged
into an existing ASF project, it would seem that the hurdle to
merge in a
code base that wasn't donated would have to be higher.
IP clearance is only required for code donations i.e. code that is
being
imported into Apache for further development. It's not required for
unmodified third-party dependencies. Please see this e-mail [1]
for more
details.
