The ASF is not a place where things are written in stone. On multiple occasions I and others, have said the policy might be changeable here. What we are discussing are the options for the *future*. I am not playing with semantics I am stating a simple fact - if the policy as it is today is restricting the AOO podling the ASF will consider changing that policy. At best arguing against this fact is a waste of time, at worst claiming this fact is not relevant is preventing us from considering other potential solutions. Lets continue to focus on what the AOO *wants* not what some of us perceive is *allowed*. Once we know what is wanted we can explore what is possible. Ross
