I went through the same situation Frank is heading into a few years back. I had a large lump of code, some good, some crap that I wanted to donate into various Commons projects. Some was accepted, some was not. I'm pretty certain that not all of javawebparts.sf.net will end up in Jakarta <name>. Some of it will be code that you like Frank.

Has there been any discussion with the Incubator PMC whether this contribution needs to come through them? Or does this somehow not fit into their purview?

I took a quick look at the javawebparts.sf.net site which currently looks essentially like Frank Zammetti's personal site, nothing in the CVS, only one committer, etc, so the legal issues are likely simpler than other SF projects that have migrated into Apache. I don't know how much of the initial load of the Web Components/Common project is expected to come from javawebparts.sf.net.

The initial load would be rearrangement of existing Jakarta codebase; some Commons components and Taglibs.

I can't see Frank's codebase being wanted without Frank himself being wanted, so a committers CLA would take care of it when we get to that step (unless other committers are added to javawebparts etc).
