I just happened to have connections. I think Roman especially did the most difficult part to sort out the process and re-establish Ambari legitimately. Zhiguo’s relentless effort on initiating the whole thing from zero is also the crucial part of the success. Of course, it can’t happened w/o all the community member’s help.
I see the newly established Ambari community already has many healthy discussions ongoing and is working closely w/ the Bigtop community. I can imagine the community thriving in the near future.
