First of all, let me say that I'm *very* impressed by the work done on Python Gump. It's *sweet*! I think it's about time that we switch away from the old shell+xslt version that is much harder to maintain and adapt.

Second, I have root access on moof.apache.org and would love to help setup a pygump installation there, making the official apache one and finally retiring the one on nagoya which was slow as hell.

Moreover, it always bothered me that gump was under the supervision of the jakarta PMC while it is a much more general purpose project, but Sam and I agreed that until Gump had its own community, a top level domain would have been a bad idea.

I think that Gump does have enough traction for becoming top level.

So, here is my proposal:

1) install pygump on moof.apache.org

[macosx box located at apple, not huge but should be enough since it's currently doing nothing.. note that we are waiting for new shiny boxes that are coming from IBM, so if our needs grow, we will have plenty of room to grow without effecting the ASF infrastructure (one of those boxes was conceived for gump explicitly)]

2) initiate the burocratic process to get Gump as a Top Level Domain

[I volunteer to help that process]

What do you think?
