It sounds like the general feeling is to do it, so I will put something together for the Developer room request.
Note that I submitted a request on behalf of the OpenOffice PMC to have the traditional "ODF Editors" devroom that has been co-organized by OpenOffice since 2014.
I honestly believe that it would be closer to the spirit of FOSDEM if other ASF projects tried to join a devroom where they fit in a technical sense more than in a community sense, especially if you take into account that one of the very few requirements for presentations is to be of a technical nature - and in my case I will surely find more familiar a technical presentation about a non-ASF, ODF-related project than one about an ASF-operated but ODF-unrelated one.
That said, I surely don't want to discourage you from applying for an "Apache Devroom". Just consider that some projects might join other devrooms not because they feel "special" or "bigger" or "more important", but because in the very competitive FOSDEM process this gives them the opportunity to better fit the FOSDEM requirements.
