I depend on Hessian as a key part of Cayenne ROP, but I'm concerned about the 
future of this project. I've commented before about the poor health of Hessian, 
but the question is now what to do with it, with bugs like BigDecimal 
languishing for years.

Assuming there are other users out there on this list, is there any enthusiasm 
for forking this project to try and maintain it and keep it alive? I know this 
has been tried before, without much long term success.

Would it make a difference if we took the code over to Apache to maintain it 
there? Do the Caucho developers have any preference for what happens next?

I have some developer resources I could put toward a cleanup and review of 
outstanding bugs. But if I am forced to maintain my own private fork, that's 
not optimal.

Cheers

Ari
