The Java Apache "standards" have so far dicated that the top level package
name reflect top level projects. Fulcrum is not a top level project, I'm
not saying that this issue about package name "standards" can't be
discussed on General@Jakarta, I'm just saying that this has been the
history to date.
My personal feeling is that it should be org.apache.turbine.fulcrum
