Thanks for sharing the link Henry. I glanced through this and have the following recommendation:
1. While the project is undergoing incubation, such articles should preferably be written as blog posts on ASF blog and then cross-posted elsewhere. 2. The project name MetaModel is now an ASF mark and should be qualified when referenced for the first time e.g. "Apache MetaModel" 3. For incubating projects, it is a requirement that any reference to them have a disclaimer clearly articulated that identifies its incubation status. For instance, adding a disclaimer such as this should suffice: "Apache MetaModel is currently undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation. More information on this project is available at http://incubator.apache.org/metamodel"; 4. Last but not least, it is best to send any articles that need to be published for internal review on the dev list and the [email protected] for review feedback and approval in order to ensure compliance with branding policies etc. For this particular article, since it has been published, I suggest contacting the publisher to request addition of the disclaimer (#3) and minor edit to make sure that the first mention of MetaModel is "Apache MetaModel".
