The idea was to first get feedback from felix if the donation would be accepted at all. Then I propose we try to come to a final conclusion in sling dev which includes a migration plan.
About access of sling committers to felix. This is a good question. Maybe a first thing we could ask on the sling side is who would be especially interested in maintaining the hc module at felix. Georg already volunteered but I think this does not have to be limited to him. Then of course we need to ask the felix PMC about giving access to those people. Do you think that makes sense?
