I second this so much! I have the feeling that the ASF tries to be so enterprisy with Java. I have no idea.
(Note that there are a lot of very high quality Apache java projects.)

I know the ASF isn't as trendy these days, but that's never really bothered those of us who volunteer. The focus has always been about a stable, open source ecosystem, primarily, but not exclusively for the internet and its underlying infrastructure. The goal is measured in decades.
It wasn't about being "enterprisey" or anything like that. The ASF as a foundation doesn't really care about the language or tech stack. Being a more mature non-profit, many corporations have found it easier to interface with the ASF than many other open source organizations out there, which does lend itself to seeing a lot of enterprisey donations.
