Bad wording from me. I mean go to incubator, leave as sub-project of a TLP and when the time has come go TLP. In comparison to go into incubation and then try to leave as TLP. > I agree, it would be good to leave Labs on good > terms.

I agree that this discussion has helped to clear things up which is very good. > > I'm fine with whatever Thorsten wants.

Droids is and will use lots of work done in lucene. Since integration of tika is ongoing and Mahout I am keen to integrate as well very soon. If not before I guess would be awesome to do it on the Hackton on ApacheCon.
