Hi Hao, >From the description, it is not fully clear to me which project you are proposing for the Apache Incubator. Do you already have a proposed project formed or is the project still in its inception phase where you are looking for new ideas? Do you have a link to the project you are proposing? We prefer projects which are open sourced for a while and at least have a functioning community ( few members ) around it. As next steps, basically you need to create an Incubator project proposal, maybe a champion and few mentors will help you out creating the proposal. Then the project proposal needs to be discussed and voted @general list on whether it is accepted as an Incubator project or not.
