Hmm, is that so? Looking at the charter
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/charter.html
I could not find something like that.
<snip/>
It is so, without a doubt.
The original charter probably predates the existence of the Apache
Incubator itself by well over a year. IMO, we're steadily growing as a
Foundation in our understanding of code donations and bringing
existing external projects (code, community et al) in the ASF fold.
There are multiple aspects to these transitions, all of which are best
handled by the procedures and policies of the Apache Incubator.
Ofcourse, all of this and more is here [1].
