[redhat-ccm-list] Community update

[Richard Li]

APLAWS+ is built directly on top of CCM. Historically it has forked 
WAF/CMS but with the 6.1.0 release we worked hard to merge all of the 
forks into the mainline in a supportable way.

Patches to APLAWS+ that affect CCM should (and generally do) find their 
way upstream.
