Hi August, It is actually more a question of participation than where the code comes from. Since your code is released under a compatible license, we could simply copy the files from your site into the platform. However, that is not ideal, because we don't have any of the expertise behind the creation of those files. We could probably figure out how they work, but it would take time. It would be much better if you were to become involved in the project yourself, so you could help drive the integration of those classes.
If you are interested in doing this, I would suggest that you submit the files via JIRA as a "New Feature". If you are not already registered in JIRA, you can do so here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Signup!default.jspa The Pivot page is located here. After you log in, click on "Create New Issue" at the top of the page: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT More information on contributing to Apache can be found here: http://apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html Thanks. I hope you will consider contributing your code to the project.
