I think <http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html> applies.
I.e. we'd have to review the code base, fill in a template, commit it to
the incubator repo and ask for a lazy consensus vote of the incubator
PMC.  And you'd have to sign a software grant IIUC.

Antoine, Steve, Stephane and myself would qualify as PMC members who are
ASF members and Incubator PMC members at the same time (we are still PMC
members from the time of Ivy's incubation).  I can help here if you can
wait another week.

Sounds OK, but we should have a closer look.

It would create an even longer paper trail, which may be a good thing,
so yes, add it to bugzilla.

No problem here.  I don't think building or even working code is a
requirement for a grant.

Any reason why you couldn't do it right away?

Sounds good.

I have put a snapshot there:
http://people.apache.org/~hibou/groovyfront-donation/
Maybe an entry in the bugzilla will better fit ?

Note that the build won't work as it is relying on other resources which are 
in the original svn, resources which have nothing to do with that groovy 
frontend. I was a quick and experimental build. I'll make a proper and 
standalone build after the import.

Note also that I didn't changed the package name, module id in the ivy.xml, 
etc... They are still some org.hibnet.gant. I'll change that too after the 
import to be org.apache.ant.groovyfront so there won't be any name conflict 
with the actual gant [1].


> I will fill a Software Grant.

I have something ready to be posted. It would grant the software 
called "Groovy Front" if it is ok.

Sounds great !

I will prepare the software with the proper ASF headers.
I will fill a Software Grant.
