OK. I certainly missed that. I understand (and share) your desire to
help JMeter as they are stuck in a very similar situation. However, this
is where similarities between JMeter and HttpComponents end. JMeter has
its own vibrant community and is very much capable of being a TLP of its
own. We both can help much better by being on the JMeter PMC then trying
to create a joint PMC.

By trying to bunch up loosely related projects with a different scope
and a distinct user base into an umbrella TLP of some sort we just give
the board a perfect reason to shoot down the proposal.  

Sebastian, what is your take on that?
