Hi, Thanks for the report, VXQuery!

So looking at the project from the outside it unfortunately doesn't seem like the new focus is yet helping re-activate the project. Do you expect this to change over the next few months? Does VXQuery have concrete plans on how to drive the new focus forward? If yes, is help from the larger Incubator community or ComDev needed? > + * 2 proposals for GSoC (1 person expressed interest in working on > + VXQuery for GSoC) I'm concerned about starting a GSoC project on a codebase without an active community. GSoC students are supposed to be working with the community, not *be* the community. Have you talked about this with ComDev? PS. VXQuery has four mentors listed: Paul Fremantle, Sanjiva Weerawarana, Radu Preotiuc-Pietro, and Jochen Wiedmann. I only see Jochen interacting with the community on vxquery-dev@ over the past two years. Are the other mentors still actively following the project?
