In 2008, the ASF did participate in https://developers.google.com/open-source/ghop/ which was the precursor of GCI. To get a feel for what was done, see https://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-asf/issues/list (look for "all issues", not just open ones) Nothing earth-shattering, but I have good memories of coordinating that, and our projects got some good stuff out of it AFAICS. If someone's willing to lead our participation in GCI that would be a good thing IMO. -Bertrand
