VXQuery - For want of a mentor...

Hello,

We, the prospective contributors of the VXQuery project are very eager
to start working on the project as soon as soon as we are able to.

The incubator mailing list has shown good support, too. We have:

One mentor (Paul Fremantle) who expressed support for the project and
accepted to be a mentor (Thanks),
2, +1 binding votes
2, -1 binding votes (willing to change to +1 if we get one more mentor)
2, +1 non-binding votes

so far. Thank you for your support.

However, we have been unable to find an ASF member who has expressed
support for our project, and has the time to be a mentor for us.

At this time, I am looking to the Incubator community for help on
solving this problem. Please help :)

Thanks,
Vinayak

Jochen,

We would really appreciate it if you could mentor us. Given that you 
would like to use the product downstream, your input would be 
invaluable. Thanks for the offer. We accept it wholeheartedly :)

Thanks,
Vinayak

If it helps, I'd also be interested in taking a mentors work. I am no
ASF member. However I am and have been in the PMC of Commons and WS
for some years. Apart from that; I'd have a professional interest in
the project, because it is more than likely that I could use it soon.

I would be willing to mentor it but I have some technical comments before I
would find it maximally appealing which would motivate me to mentor it :). I
know technical comments should've been made earlier by unfortunately I
didn't see this thread :(. Sorry; just too much email to deal with!

I will reply to the proposal thread ..

Sanjiva.
