I don't believe there is a sponsoring PMC at this point.
Once we have had a chance to digest all the input and finish
dotting the I's and crossing the T's from a legal perspective, Adam
or I will come back to ask for a vote.
Personally, I would prefer that the ASF not accept _any_ AJAX
framework at
this point in time. The area is relatively new and in a great deal
of flux
right now, and "crowning" one of them with the ASF brand will
create a de
facto standard instead of letting the market decide, whether we
like it or
not.
I realise that the Incubator doesn't work that way, though, and
that plenty
of people don't seem to care / mind that we'd create a (premature,
IMHO) de
facto standard, but I can always hope. ;-)
Sanjiva and I have experience with Apache SOAP. Two rewrites
later, and there is a thriving community working on Apache Axis2.
The goal here is not to "crown" anything, but to provide the grain
of sand that will lead to the production of a pearl.
I am a big +1 on the ASF getting "involved" with AJAX.
