You may be right about that :) If no one else chimes in (specifically was 
looking for Kevan to comment), then I am OK with proceeding.
It seems to me though that the specification portion of the JAR files that 
Apache distributes should probably be related to the foundation
itself. So more so than legal, it's a branding thing ("i think") :)

Apache is still declared as the implementor. My understanding is that for the Derby database (for instance), the "specification" section would declare JDBC and the "implementation" section would declare Apache (Derby is not currently declaring those sections, but if it did I think that would be the idea). The same would apply to XML parsers, JEE implementations, etc.

So let's see what comes of it. If no one speaks up in the next few days let's 
proceed.

Fine, I will wait to next week.
