New modules that are developed elsewhere and are being donated to
Apache have to to through the Intellectual Property clearance as per
https://incubator.apache.org/guides/ip_clearance.html

The recent Mojohaus utilities contribution was handled like that,
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/netbeans-mojohaus-utilities.html
- search this list for more details on how that happened.

If all authors have an iCLA on file with Apache and declare that they
are authorized to make the contribution, no additional paperwork is
required.

If the contribution belongs to an external entity, a Software Grant
must be filed.

For future modules the best IMO is to create a whiteboard / drafts
code repository where people can experiment - if those contributions
are entirely developed at Apache there's no additional process.
