At this time, LGPL code is an issue unless you access it very indirectly, e.g., an LGPL JDBC driver, where your code is entirely naive about which driver is in use. We are hopeful that these issues will be resolved with the FSF, but until then, LGPL would be a blocker. Cliff Schmidt is managing licensing issues for the ASF at this time, and can go into detail. > * Setup project website > - A roller/jspwiki driven site like rollerweblogger.org? > - Or just a static site generated by build process? A static site is no problem, and should go under http://incubator.apache.org/roller, which means placing it under /www/incubator.apache.org/roller. A roller-based site is a bit more of an issue, would go under roller.zones.apache.org, and perhaps should wait for graduation. > * Make a release through website > - To learn the Apache release process Your mentors can definitely help out here. > * Apply Apache license This should be done immediately. --- Noel
