Xindece is owned by the Xindice community; of which you Sandy, and Todd
and all those others helping out are as much part as anyone else.
Though not ideal - it is not bad for a community to split/hand-off to one
group which maintains the older code and see a new group embark onto
something new. Either at the ASF or elsewhere.
And if you are very low on resources -and- you have developers giving you
good patches; consider adding a few committers quickly :-)
