We would prefer that the project be independent at first. None of the
initial committers have much experience with xml.apache.org and would
like to gradually move toward collaborating. As I've said before this
is a self contained project and it is used that way. I have no doubt
that the code can be integrated into Axis in some form, but this
is not our primary motive for bringing the code to apache.

Fair enough, I will no longer argue the point. My main concern is that
the project be granted full autonomy as a project initially as Hannes
and the rest of the committers become accustomed to xml.apache.org than
we can discuss the possible integration with Axis.
Does this sound reasonable?
