That's a pretty strong reason in itself :-)
In fact many companies have an open acceptance to apache
projects/libraries but are still very cautious regarding everything else
open sourced.

The impression i got last from Greg was Tiles moving to
github/google/whatever would be more a result of inactivity rather than
a conscious decision to move away.

For my part, where i'm no religious apache follower and ultimately don't
object to where tiles resides, i do have the opinion that the apache
community is a very highly talented group of communities and that
prestige is a real inspiration for many developers and can give us a
better chance of recruitment than the freedoms and anarchy of github. 

But it doesn't really matter, if it can be left to a natural
evolution/devolution...
