Nathan,

Thanks for the quick response.

Well, I decided to start here because of the library dependencies. I'm
happy to tun everything through JIRA once there's an agreement.

Certainly. In fact, I /want/ to give this thing away. I've just been
unable to get much guidance for the best way to do it.

I was operating based upon a rumor that the ASF doesn't like to use libs
and stuff that are either non-ASF or that operate under certain types of
licenses. I wanted to make sure that whatever I did wasn't a deal-breaker.

I was kinda hoping that Jakarta Commons would express interest, but it's
kind of unclear how to donate something like this.

It's all set up and ready to go, actually. Just looking for a good home
and for me to choose a license (ASF is just fine with me).

Thanks again,
