It should be noted that Apache Software Foundation members are the legal
*owners* of the software that is available under the Apache Software
License.  Indeed, that is one of the key benefits to becoming an ASF
member, as opposed to just a committer on one or more projects.  It seems
perfectly reasonable that decisions on the license under which that
software is licensed should be made by the people that own it.

PS:  Yes, I am an ASF member, and therefore one of those owners.
