So, we now have a website and a wiki. We have dealt with all licensing issues except for the javax.microedition one. I'm pretty close to calling for a vote. So, two questions to precede that:
1. As regarding the javax.microedition licensing, the approach we are proposing is to use the OSGi one, planned to be released week of 11 sept. If, for whatever reason, this does not arrive in time, we will remove the related code from our SVN repo until such a time as we have the necessary dependency. So, do we have a volunteer to do the integration or removal, at short notice, just before the board meeting (16 Sept)? 2. Does anyone have any other concerns they wish to raise before we proceed to a vote?
