Berin, the ASF has a specific policy: only code under the apache license
is developped on the apache CVS.

And the Apache license 1.1 was not designed to be equally protecting
from a legal standpoint if used in boilerplated form (unlike the GPL and
the Apache license 2.0 which were designed with *that* in mind).

Result: the ASF board, to avoid confusion, wants everybody to stick with
the full license until the new license is out.

Now: nobody here has the power to change that decision and if he wants
to challenge it (I tried in the past with Cocoon and failed), waste your
energy and ask "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
