Thanks for the proposal. I agree that Fortress is a good fit to the other projects at Apache Directory. So if you and others think that Fortress should be a sub-project then I won't oppose. However I also have concerns. The Directory project already has 5 subprojects, 3 of them with more then 200k LOC each, but only 2 active committers. I just want to avoid that we inject yet another code drop that nobody maintains later. Also, can you please tell us the source repositories? I found [1], which projects do you want to donate, those 4 (core, commander, enmasse, and realm) or just part of them? Or are there other projects?
