But if the intent is to keep the com.alibaba name space, we need a discussion. The reference to org.codehaus.groovy is a good one. It refers to the existing non-commercial community-supported code base. But having a commercial entity with its name prominent in an Apache project is asking for trouble. It raises branding issues that I'm not comfortable with.
