The one problem (at least in java land) is that classes are usually namespaced 
in reverse DNS order. ie 

org.apache.commons.X

which will clash with jakarta commons. Apache.com does not seem to do java 
development work so it may be the case where we can move to 

apache.commons.X 

for the Apache commons - thus sidestepping namespace issues. Not sure though.
