RE: Splitting APR from Apache.
Don't forget http://aprlib.apache.org/ (an empty folder is fine today,
it can be a rbb/gstein/wrowe headache from there on out), the aprlib-site
cvs tree and cvs site mail list.
Anyone have any other additions for http://www.advogato.org/proj/aprlib/
as far as other projects using aprlib quite yet?

Okay, all of that makes complete sense, ignore the aprlib.apache.org, and
just use apr-dev@httpd.apache.org. Sorry to be difficult.

So do you mean, aprlib.apache.org? Who's on the PMC for it? What's its
charter? Is it really a big enough deal to create a whole new project
around it?
Just because it's still under httpd.apache.org does not mean it's web
server-specific. All the other projects under Apache have components
useful outside the project's scope. What would be the mission for an
"aprlib" project?
What a headache - can we just create it at httpd.apache.org, and then move
it to its own project once we figure out answers to all the above
questions?
I'd really hate to break the nomenclature conventions that we'd all talked
about and I thought decided upon, regarding the hierarchy of projects and
components underneath them. Or is this an "incubator" project?

One thing I forgot. These should be @apache.org IMHO. This is not an
httpd sub-project AFAIAC. This is a completely separate project that we
are creating.
