Good. Hopefully all technologies used to fuel the sites will be able to do
the same. :)

Not necessarily. Even though Ant, James etc have left Jakarta, ASF
discussions a while back [started off by Brian Behlendorf's email on
having categories/communities] suggest that Ant and James may still belong
to the Jakarta community, as well as being top-level projects. I think
this entire concept is still quite in the air.
