Sounds great :-)
It is definitely too early to talk about the details, but let me just
mention one important aspect here. A pure donation of a code rarely
works out well without a desire of the original authors to at least
help to integrate it, and ideally lead the development/maintenance
effort in the open source environment. We had such experience with
Cayenne DataViews technology which is an excellent piece of
engineering, but with nobody to lead it, it quietly died and was
excluded from Cayenne.
