+About the Marmotta project:
+
+    Apache Marmotta (incubating) provides an Open Platform for Linked Data.
+    The podling entered incubation in December 2012. Since then, two releases
+    were published according to the ASF policies and guidelines.
+    The community has grown, two new committers (and PPMC members) were added
+    and many more people joined the mailing lists.
+
