-   Beginning work within the ASF has been slow (and rather confusing). Mailing list activity has improved, but still low volume. Development priorities are still being discussed. We do now have repositories for code and the website, but are blocked by needing access to them--the request as been made to the general@incubator list. However, we have successfully gotten Jira and Confluence setup for the project and have a promotional web page ready and waiting once access has been granted. Making the incubation process clearer (and ideally more automated) would have saved a lot of time and confusion. That said, our Champion (Daniel Gruno), has been most helpful in helping us navigate.
