[Sorry for the truncated message from some minutes ago.. Was pressing "Send" accidentally. So to continue:]
As a reminder: Publishing this release will be taken as a sign, that the project is ready for graduation. So, it seems about time to discuss our further intentions. Our options, as I see them, are: 1.) Graduate as a new TLP, as ant has already suggested. I would expect that the board would approve a corresponding request. (After minor discussions, perhaps.) 2.) Become a subproject of another TLP. Problem is, that there is no obvious choice, that would welcome VXQuery. For example, speaking as a member of Apache Commons, I'd personally reject VXQuery as not sufficiently generic. I'd expect at least applicability on DOM nodes, or something like that, with some examples demonstrating the use as part of the documentation. The main difference between these options: As a TLP, there's addidional work to do. With option 2, that would be done by the parent project.
