Chad,
> I am an IBM employee who has developed a new type of framework
Please first read: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/newproject.html
also read http://incubator.apache.org/
You might consider approching the incubator project (subscribe to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) I would certainly suggest it as the best next
step for you.
You might consider contributing this to jakarta-commons.
Alternatively you might also consider approaching one of the existing
Jakarta sub-projects if you believe that there might be benefit in creating
a joint project combining the two things, or even of simply donating and
joining an existing sub-project.
Jakarta has a high bar for entry of new sub-projects, higher still since we
have been encouraged by the ASF board to "flatten" the structure of Apache.
This doesn't mean that we are unable or unwilling to consider new
sub-projects but it does mean that we might have to work hard to justify
it.
One final word of advice, Apache is not sourceforge, and whilst we do
welcome new projects it will require you to convince people of its worth
and you would do well to find someone who can champion your cause and do
some evangelising on your behalf.
