Hi,

It's good to see 2 were made committers what about the other 40?

> Over 62 company users is willing to announce that he is using Dolphin Scheduler: https://github.com/apache/incubator-dolphinscheduler/issues/57

Why is this important, individuals contribute to apache projects not companies. I guess it nice to know that people are using your project but how is this related to the Apache community growth?

The report also includes a question about branding, which is missing in this draft,  please include your answer to that as well.

Thanks,
Justin
