We continue to discuss moving this work to Apache. Feedback so far has been to try for an eventual TLP. We're starting to draft the Incubation proposal. We talked to the maintainer of the C#/AODL component and he confirmed that it is not really active anymore. He might move it to bitbucket. So our plan will be to propose moving only the Java components over to Apache,
I'm happy to help with mentoring this proposal. Let me know if you need a hand with drafting the proposal.
In terms of an eventual TLP goal, and POI interaction/integration, that's something we can all discuss and decide during the incubation process
Also, we just announced a new release (more info below) and are starting work on our next release, which is targeted to add support for document encryption and digital signatures.
One thing to be aware of is that your first release at Apache is always much much harder than every subsequent one! There's a lot to be said for doing a small, incremental release ASAP to get the process sorted, rather than trying to tackle the release when there's lots of exciting features blocked by (say) a missing license and a broken signature!
