Hi. The first release of SkyWalking is by my and Sheng’s hands. Justin, thank you very much for pointed out our mistake of the license and notice of the third-party libraries. In the meantime, must say thanks to Willem. By his help, I can searched and understood the apache documents about the ASF legal and the release process. Sometimes we are get together in the party or meet-up because of we are living in the same city, Beijing. Willem helped me to get the chances to have a speak about SkyWalking at some of the bigger conference. I am sure, he is an active mentor for us. Please let him continue to help us.
