NON-VOTE comments:

Hi Henri, everyone,
How does moving Jakarta Slide to TLP work in conjunction with the
Jackarta Jackrabbit move out of incubation?  It seems like they both
have the same goals (storing and managing files w/ metadata), just
different implementations.  I would like to reference the Apache
Alexandria project where it's goals were also the same, but that project
depreciated and would like to avoid that scenario again.  I would hate
to see great apache developers seperated by two different projects, also
would hate to see the user-base seperated between the two projects (the
developers could cross-pollinate, but a user would probably only pick
one).  Can this be commented on please?

Thanks,
-D, Concerned & Confused user
