Cayenne might be better suited for TLP status, which I suggest  
considering as the DB project is starting to balloon =)

That said, I am very willing to support Cayenne personally, and  
suspect the rest of the DB PMC might be supportive as well. It would  
fit well in the DB project conceptually (which historically is more  
about database access than databases). I just am trying to go with  
the TLP preference vibe going around, and that Cayenne has been  
around a while I don't want to cramp their style.

So, I'm very happy to help mentor (the Official Incubator Role and  
the actual verb, as it relates to working within Apache) Cayenne, and  
would love to see this work out! It may be worth pinging the Tapestry  
folks as well as I have seen a lot of Cayenne use within the Tapestry  
community, and they are an energetic bunch.
