Stephane,
Are you hosting these in the repo or are you simply depending on them? I
assume you are just depending on them, but not checking them into the
repo. If so, then that is ok, right Upayavira?

Humm, I have a question about this.
I have a bundle that uses jfree and jcommon librairies. These
libraries are available as standard maven artifacts. Can I consider
there licenses ASL compatible since they are provided through maven ?
No, it isn't as simple as that. You need to look for the license
specified against each item.
Looking at jfree.org, it seems that resources there are licensed with
the LGPL. Unfortunately, LGPL code cannot be included within ASF
projects, as they place additional restrictions on usage that make it
incompatible with the Apache License (for more info, see third party
licensing link at http://www.apache.org/legal).
That doesn't stop you using them, just that they can't be hosted at Apache.
Are these utilities that you already have committed in the Felix repo,
or ones that you would have liked to include?

Hi there,
After struggling with my ADSL line, I daresay JMood is ready for moving from
my sandbox (santillan) to the trunk. However, being a newbie, I don't want
to mess things just before the graduation voting. Should I do something
special? (e.g., create a JIRA issue, change something from the pom, ...)
The issues regarding graduation are nothing to do with stability, more
to do with licensing. Does this move involve any new dependencies? If
so, are their licenses Apache License 2.0 compatible? If the answer is
yes, then any change you make won't affect graduation discussions.
