I was going to reference this in a /. submission, but the email itself is not archived in a publically accessible place. I am assuming that I should, therefore, not post it until the Apache board wants to make its own public announcement. (Perhaps the /. effect wouldn't bring feelings of gratitude to the Sun legal team.) Regardless, David, do you know what the Apache board plans? Also, you do know that this email list is publically archived. Did you make a slip and reveal Apache's "secret" plans to "dump" Java?
