Hi Fabian, Rupert,

I have been taking a look to the Stanbol Jira and certainly there is a
great mess there. For example, there are a lot of issues opened more than
one or two years ago. What do you think guys about having a session for
properly organizing this?. We can meet at the IRC channel or wherever you
consider and talk about releases, expectations, roadmap. I have the
impression that there is a complete lack of planning for the project. I
know that I'm not probably the most indicated person for saying this
because I'm far away of being a daily contributor. But maybe we can
motivate committers again by building a great backlog and planning properly
where the project should go. I have been using Stanbol lately for two real
uses cases and I could share with you my impressions and provide feedback
as functionality that would have been nice to have while developing the
projects.

It would be great also to know how other Apache projects build their
roadmap. Maybe we find a mirror to look at.

Cheers,
Rafa
