Hi Ryan, the xReporter community is still very young, and only the first almost-patches are trickling in ATM. One of the main criteria for Apache-adoption is the existence of a _diverse_ group of committers, not residing under one single company umbrella, which unfortunately is the case ATM with xReporter. Not by intention, just by the young age of the project. As much as we are open to the idea of donating the codebase to Apache, we think the community isn't there yet, and we don't just want to dump our code for reasons of being 'cool' or the like. We specifically warn people of the possibility of an eventual donation in our license, so when the community and interest is there, it might happen.
