Good point Ken. How about we consider this thread the invite? So
formally:
We would like to invite the projects that Geronimo works with to
consider joining Geronimo as a Subproject. If your project would
like to join, we will either need a proposal to incubate the project,
or a proposal to donate the code. In the case of incubation, the
current committers will have immediate access to their code in the
incubator, and in the case of an donation, the current committers
will have to earn commit on Geronimo.

invitation letter would simply state our interest in having the
project
join Geronimo and if they accept, to prepare a proposal for the
incubator. When the proposals are ready, we would vote to accept
the
project and forward it to incubator.
I think that might be a little overpowering. How about having
people in the projects approach their own community and float the
idea? 'What do you think about joining Geronimo? I hear they'd
be glad to have us if we wanted to do it..'
As much as possible it should be driven by the projects wanting
to join rather than by Geronimo wanting them.
