I am highly opposed to that because of the following reasons : - If commons wants to be Jakarta they just should work *here* to achieve that. - If commons is leaving to come back, they are just ignoring the other projects that are still here. - It is solving the problem the wrong way - The biggest (developer) community is in commons. We need them to still care and think about the rest of Jakarta. It's just like leaving your parent's home to live on your own to run away from your siblings and then try to move back in when the siblings left the parental home. Big chance your parents will not let you do that. Going to bed now..
