[VOTE] Accept the wsdl2js stuff donated by Basis Technology

We apparently need a vote on wether we would like to accept the wsdl2js
stuff.    For those that missed the discussions earlier, the threads
are:

http://www.nabble.com/Contribution-of-wsdl2js-tool-tf4111015.html
http://www.nabble.com/Re:-Contribution-of-wsdl2js-tool-tf4113367.html
http://www.nabble.com/WSDL2JS-next-legal-steps-tf4141475.html

Basically, they would like to contribute some code that will produce a
pure javascript client that is suitable for running in a browser.   It's
definitely cool stuff and it would be neet to see a ?js type url to
automaticall provide it and stuff.

The code itself can be found at:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-812


Here's my +1.   This definitely has "coolness" written all over it.  :-)

It looks very useful and anything that makes using browser based stuff
easier is a big win.

I have one concern about this--not the software itself, but the way it
is being donated[1]--software grant instead of the JIRA "donate to ASF"
button.  I would like to make sure that the software grant method does
not limit our refactoring opportunities with the code compared to the
"donate to ASF" button option.  

I suspect there is a lot of commonality within the various wsdl2xxx
programs, that, over time, you're going to want to refactor, reuse,
simplify, merge, etc., them, sharing a lot of code in the process.  If
one of the wsdl2xxx's originally belongs to XYZ Corporation, will future
refactoring of that code with the other wsdl2xxx's become legally
problematic and messy?  Or can we still do that regardless of whether
the code is donated via software grant or via "pure" ASF donation?

Thanks,
Glen

The "donate to ASF" button is mostly designed for "trivial" fixes and
enhancements to existing functionality developed specifically as
enhancements to that functionality.  

The grants are for "importing" new functionality that was developed
outside the project, possibly under a different license, etc...    The
grant process is mostly a "legal" thing to make sure the license is OK,
there aren't any license restrictions, etc...   It's designed to protect
the contributor as well as the ASF from legal questions about where the
code came from and such.  

Once the grant completes, the code is part of the project and is
completely under the Apache License and we can do whatever needs to be
done to integrate it in better.   It's just a bunch of legal mumbo jumbo
to make sure everyone is protected properly.
