Re: [Laszlo-dev] OpenMeetings accepted for Apache Incubator

Congratulations, Sebastian! You have worked very hard for so many
years on the project, and it's fantastic that you managed to get
Apache interested in it.

Re: [Laszlo-dev] Adobe preparing Proposals for Flex and BlazeDS for Apache Incubation

Oh, sorry, double posted this. Looks like Seb was faster. 

I can only agree with him on the idea to contribute OpenLaszlo to the
ASF. I don't believe Laszlo will be able to maintain OpenLaszlo in a
way that it is a relevant HTML5 platform without growing support from
companies and a stronger community.

I think that Adobe has a good chance that Flex will be an ASF project
at some point. They already have a project in the incubator with
PhoneGap/Callback, which is one of the more promising projects
incubated by ASF:

Re: [Laszlo-dev] Adobe preparing Proposals for Flex and BlazeDS for Apache Incubation

For the PhoneGap/Apache Callback project, IBM is one of the
co-sponsors, as Arstechnica reported:
http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2011/10/phonegap-to-become-an-apache-project-as-adobe-acquires-nitobi.ars
"Adobe and Nitobi are moving PhoneGap to the non-profit Apache
Software Foundation (ASF), where it will be developed as an Apache
Incubator project called Callback. The proposal—which is still be
reviewed by the ASF—is cosponsored by IBM, another major PhoneGap
contributor. Coordinating future PhoneGap development through the ASF
will ensure that the project continues to benefit from an open
governance model."
