Perhaps our biggest goal in creating AoJ was to jump start a community project to create an AoJ implementation. So a community AoJ fork could (should) use the AoJ name though a different package.

I think idea this has a bootstrapping problem. There needs to be one 
such initiative (and - hopefully - only one), and there needs to be 
sufficient traction for that to remain alive.

I'm willing to create an organization on GitHub that contains such a 
fork, but - partly due to health issues - I really don't have the time 
and energy to be very actively contributing or involved in that for the 
foreseeable future. And that can easily be the downfall of such a fork.

Would there be any objections to create a GitHub organization called 
adba-community, or maybe jdbc-community (which would allow it to be 
broader than just AoJ and ADBA)?
