Actually what we want to commit is some code written by us which will go under Apache License (Not LGPL). Only thing is this code will refer to some Hibernate classes. It is great if we can give the hibernate jar with our distribution, but even if not we can still ask the users to download it seperately.
So what we actually have are following two problems.
1. Can we commit source code that goes under Apache licence but will refer to some classes of the Hibernate framework (which goes under LGPL).
2. Can we include Hibernate jar in the Apache Sandesa2 distributions.
Thank you,

I'm just about to propose a licensing policy, based on the input I've
gotten from various mailing lists, the PMCs, and lots of folks at
ApacheCon. I can't tell you how the proposal will be received, but I
can tell you that it would not allow the distribution of LGPL code
within an Apache product.
Stay tuned on this list for details within the next few days.
