Hi, Our original plan for the CMIS efforts was to manage them as organic growth within Jackrabbit, essentially developing the code in the Jackrabbit sandbox and inviting CMIS contributors as Jackrabbit committers based on their contributions.
However, it seems that with quite a bit of interest around this and with the codebase and potential committers having just a little overlap with Jackrabbit core, it might be better to take the effort to the Apache Incubator where the codebase and related community can evolve more freely without being bound too tightly to Jackrabbit. So, I've created a skeleton proposal [1] for "Apache Chemistry", a project that would be based on the Chemistry code developed at Nuxeo and the JCR-CMIS code in the Jackrabbit sandbox. Feel free to edit the proposal and mark yourselves as initial committers if you're interested in participating. See [2] for more background on what the proposal is expected to contain and how we should move forward with it. I'm volunteering to mentor the project.
