License question
So I write open source stuff outside Apache. I like the Apache license. I
basically want to use the Apache license, but obviously I can't just go
around assigning code to the ASF without telling them.
What's the normal way to handle this? Do I just modify the Apache license
and do a s/Apache/Me? Is there a generic license out there which saves me
having to do this for each project?

At the moment - no. There is currently an Apache 2.0 license under development
and it is available in CVS somewhere. I believe it may be discussed at
ApacheCon if you are going or else you can try to subscribe to
licensing@apache.org. Technically the list is a list restricted to members so
you may have to convince the list admin that you should be on it :) (unless
you are a member)
