If you didn't mean a separate SVN/Git repo on ASF hardware then you didn't say it and I misunderstood. The code in question, at http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/camel-extra/ is under the GPL. The questions, as I read them, can be paraphrased as "can we develop GPL code using ASF infrastructure for everything else", from a community perspective I would say the answer is no (which you seem to agree with). I don't believe the question is about being legal able to use the code, the PMC is already using it. Ross
