Is it true that Marc had asked to move JBoss over and that it was not
accepted?

I guess I was not around during that time (if it ever was).  I had sensed
(from monitoring the Jboss-users and dev lists early this year) that there
was a bit of ill sentiment towards the 'Jakarta Love Train' ;)

I had heard rumors, but never knew what to make of it until I asked him
directly myself at a JBoss presentation at the local JUG meeting a few
months back, and his response was something like...."nothing but a bunch of
Sun guys there", but I couldn't make out exactly what he said.

Is any of this true?  Was Jboss rejected from joining Apache?
