I believe a main reason is also licensing. The Spec document uses the Spec
License (except 2 JSRs by Red Hat that somehow negotiated dual-licensing.
so strictly speaking their Spec could be altered or "improved" under the
Apache License without problems;-O) while all other "code" artifacts use
the respective licenses of the RI in most cases now.
