I don't really follow the logic here - I'm not suggesting where the project
would go (under Qpid or ActiveMQ) but we're talking about open source
development and yet you seem to be suggesting the Apache projects are
somehow proprietary - which they are clearly not. What would be the problem
with having the AMQP core libraries associated with an Apache project ?

Again, don't understand the issue with being associated with an open source
AMQP impl.
