I fully resonate with this: I have *always* hated projects as
containers. I think Tomcat is a project, not Jakarta. I think Xerces is
a project not XML (which conflicts with XML the language).
In the future, I would simply love to see
www.apache.org/tomcat
go along with
www.apache.org/httpd
and a good software map to tell the story, indicate the overlap, outline
those distinctions and so on.
It would also remove the need for PMCs and give the ASF board a reason
to exist.
The reason question is: could we stand the heat of a [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail list?
