IMHO, 1. Metro doesn't belong any more in Avalon than Cocoon belongs in Tomcat. 2. The described 'worst-case' scenario, makes me not inclined to take Merlin away from the ASF. from that follows a set of options, a. A TLP. b. The Incubator. c. Another project/federation. a. is what we have opted for as the most preferred scenario from our perspective. b. is in the group considered a "death sentence". Be that an overstatement, some users are indicating it to be a signal of the negative kind. c. we are unable to see that the technology fits naturally within any other project, but I am all ears if there is an opinion towards this.
