In order to distribute it as an "Apache" release, using ASF
infrastructure (mirrors) to carry it, it has to be Apache-Licensed
at a minimum. It also would need to be formally approved by

distribute the release, in which case it's not an Apache release
per se, and the aforementioned rules do not apply.
