Absolutely. Getting the code into the Foundation's long-term

I've not been through the process before of moving Collective code to
the Foundation, but I know Jarn has done this, so perhaps Geir can
enlighten us there on whether any additional steps are required other
than making sure all contributors have signed the Contributor
Agreement.
I don't know of any special considerations beyond the normal ones.
- Code must meet Plone's quality assurance level. (i.e pass PLIP review)
- All contributors must have signed the agreement.
- Some sort of consensus that the code is of general use to Plone and
the community, and that the community is the best entity to manage
maintenance long term.
- Licensing
Makes sense to me to move it to the Plone repository in preparation of
PLIP review — as long as licenses match and all contributors are clear.
