I am not against us providing it (if somebody cares to write it), but
I don't think this is required either under my understanding or the
quoted page (see my other message on why).

I wasn't really going to respond to this since I didn't think there
was any ambiguity in the requirements. But since it's come up...
All of the other Apache java projects I've used can build from the
distro source release.
I don't see making cayenne build from the distro as an impossible
task. If the svn checkout can build, then it should be a simple
matter to copy that build tree into the distro.
I will agree that's an ugly build system, but that's been the case
ever since we switched to maven.
