I have reservations: 1) It's definitely a GUI focused project. Jakarta as a project has not yet made any moves to support Java projects which do not have some form of server aspect. Just as DB based Java projects are going into db.apache.org, I think there ought to be a gui.apache.org [better name needed] for this kind of thing. 2) This is a bit like a company looking at using Product X. If Jakarta is inviting projects in, what are the criteria. Why is ThunderGraph better than the alternatives? Rather than digesting ThunderGraph into Jakarta, it'd be nice to see Apache backing some form of ASF-way-like community for gui'd components, ie) gui taglibs [we currently do quite abstract taglibs], components, applets etc. If we're 'acquiring projects', I think we need some rules of acquisition.
