(3) is of course the way to go.
But do you think there is enough "community" support for it?
A couple of more names on the team list would be nice:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/attributes/team-list.html
I'm only asking this because I don't see a lot of mail activity on the lists.
Promoting/releasing a component is easy (I can help if needed) but supporting it...

All,
I have received emails to the effect that releasing Attributes as-is would be a good idea. People need an official release to distribute and to use in their own releases.
The documentation isn't perfect - I'm lacking a Maven demo to complement the Ant demo, but I don't think that the docs are bad enough to warrant holding up the release.
Since Attributes is in the sandbox right now, it has to be promoted. And this is a problem. See, I'm not a commons committer. So promoting the project would mean that its chief developer (me) suddenly can't commit code to it. This is not an acceptable state.
So, the way I see it - these are the ways forward:
1. Attributes stay in sandbox, unreleased. 2. Attributes stay in sandbox, but we release it. 3. Attributes move to commons proper, we release it, and I get committer status.
Of these, (3) is the most preferred one, followed by (2) and (1).
Commons Committers, what do you say?
