I don't think that we will move *ozone* to Apache - just Infozone for now. This
may result in a tight integration of ozone and an Apache project (Infozone),
which inturn may lead to a tight ozone Apache integration which may lead to
other things later. But this is out of the scope of the current discussion.
I would like to keep ozone a general OODBMS - with XML capabilities. If we
would change the goal of the ozone project to build a XML only storage system,
then we should totally integrate it in Infozone. But I don't want to do this
because I don't see a benefit.
