Not sure how the rest of you feel, but I would strongly suggest some more javadoc and/or developers guide be put in place to help acceptance. Not that I'm volunteering ... : ), just a thought.

Now "all we need to do" is to create a release. Note that since Apache has a very liberal license, it's possible (but not encouraged) to create unofficial "releases" of the code base outside the Apache process. But I would not encourage us to tag the Apache svn repository to correspond to an unofficial outside release. So the best thing is to use this as an opportunity to get an Apache release out. Please review the official incubator release requirements at http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html It's a long read, but well worth the effort. One of the biggest challenges facing a podling is to create a release. First thing is to nominate a release manager. Mark, I guess this would be you? Congratulations.
