You can also say that "SourceForge is a non-profit organization that
hosts a large number of projects" and that "Oscar is an independent
group with a single project that moves to the ASF for the community and
legal oversight it provides." In the close to 1 year that I've been
working with Oscar, I never got the impression that the Oscar-ObjectWeb
relationship was anything more than infrastructure.
Hmm... comparing ObjectWeb and SourceForge isn't really fair!
Note that I'm in no way affiliated to ObjectWeb, but I happen to know a
few people there and they raised some issues when I mentioned the new
Oscar ASF project on my blog (see comments in [1]) and during private
discussions.
Now if they really have a problem with what's happening, it's up to them
to react. So let's move on!
