Folks, I¹m willing to continue working on the project as a committer. I know the source code and can handle the Jira management and contribute website content. Would love to have more committers on it to help out.
I posted a couple of question/issues on 3/17/16 that no one responded to. I expected at least something from a mentor to help guide me on determining why 3rd fork pull isn¹t being reflected on the mirror. The other open issues I would think other folks should speak up and give their opinion on so we can move toward a release. So I¹m not sure if this is really going to happen. But if it does great.
