I am only asking for the technical solution. I think we have discussed sufficiently that replacing this stuff is possible but will take time. I am also not setting any time frame for moving those files. beyond that we should do it somewhen before release. > > The whole discussion is not really motivating for project > members and of course does not really promote the Apache way > or the ASF in general. > I agree it's not very motivating but in my defense it was something that had to be discussed sooner better than later. > > So we always have to take Windows into account and on > Windows you don't have system libraries for this stuff. > We can do packages of this stuff.

This was meant to be discussed on a strictly technical level without demotivating developers or calling "bloody murder" on the project. I hereby drop *any* claim that we may not be complying with any relevant policy. Also to give full assurance that I will not be problem to the project I will be stepping down from the PPMC so my vote will not be binding: I am really only interested in technical discussions anyway.
