> With the googlecode shutdown, they've instituted an "import this project into github" feature which seems to flatten the code and allow it to be brought into a github repo.  This basically removes the original author as anyone can perform this step (the original code was using mercurial, so I suspect thats why it wasn't imported as commits).
> The incubator is looking to bring in a podling, Gossip, that was implemented this way: https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/GossipProposal.  We're anticipating needing an SGA and wanted to check on who that SGA should come from.
> My suspicion is the original author.  The original author is not involved in the apache project going forward (and hadn't committed against the codebase for 6 years).
