Actually I would like to exit labs with Apache Droids within this month. I am finishing up with an usage example and a roadmap for the upcoming enhancements. The Apache HttpComponents project are willing to sponsor the project. I think they still has to formalize this with an official vote but there is interest [1]. As I understand Stefano I will write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask for acceptance of Apache Droids as new incubating sub project of Apache HttpComponents, right? Or should the HC PMC ask (like Erik suggests)?
