Any thoughts?

I think a release is in order. Perhaps someone can build a release candidate.

I'm not sure either, but then it's not really ready to leave the
incubator. We need users who are going to add features and polish.
Perhaps we should set something up that will scan all projects in the
incubator and provide reports. We should think about encouraging
people to bring other audit work into this project too (i.e. the work
that creates http://incubator.apache.org/clutch.html could, possibly,
be usefully be applied here)
