Everything is always an option and having some code on SF doesn't mean that it
won't be included into the Apache tree.  On the contratry: SF is often used to
mature projects before they join Apache.

Apache emphasis on "Community" and it's not IMO (only) a code repository.  If
you want to bring code into Apache, you must prove that you have a community of
developers AND users.

Too much hassle.  The current problem is that we should make a release but we
first learn how to do it in the Apache infrastructure.  Other projects do it
successfully so there's no reason that Xindice can't do it too.

Good decision.  But it doesn't mean that the Delphi code can't ever be @
Apache.  Before you start committing into SF, drop me a mail since I have some
experience with the SF infrastructure.

I would also like to see the HTTP and WebDAV servlets for the latest CVS code
but haven't had the time to start working on it.
