Well, yes it would, but beware that there are other things attached.
- you will be giving the rights of the software to Apache (although
each individual committer is still free to do what he wants with
the parts he exclusively wrote)
- the project will be run using the Apache rules, that is with
meritrocracy and voting; this means that the core developers
will loose formal control of the project decisions, that will
be taken collectively by all developers
There is good in this, as these things will hopefully make the project
outlive the original creators, which is in the intent of Apache.
