And after we voted and agreed on a solution that would allow both Agora,
the sandbox and the commons you decide we should make a small change that
will remove Agora.
With the pretext that jakarta projects are not able to decide what to
release - and only commons is entitled to release shared code.

The use of the shared repository as in the voted proposal is ok for my
needs.
Doing a small change in the proposal that will turn the common repository
is not.
