[CANCEL] [VOTE] Accept Apache HotdoG into the Incubator

2013-06-13 Thread Ramirez, Paul M (398J)
All,

First of all, big thanks to everyone for their support of this proposal but at 
this time it is best to put this on hold. The HDF Group, who were envisioned to 
provide the initial code drop and some of the primary developers, have existing 
efforts they would first like to get aligned before creating another thrust. 
Additionally, there are some collaborators with HDF Group that we would like to 
be involved so that we can create synergy for them and Apache. Although the 
vote would have passed, I feel its not the right time to spin this up and use 
Apache resources unnecessarily. We will be meeting with the HDF Group and their 
collaborators over the summer and look to see if there is a viable path forward 
and how best we can proceed together. Once again, thanks for everyone's 
interest and we look forward to making this happen.

Thanks,
Paul Ramirez


[CANCEL][VOTE] Accept Apache HotdoG into the Incubator

All,

It was brought to my attention that we have only 2 mentors.  At this time I am 
canceling the vote for Apache HotdoG in order to secure another mentor. I'd 
like to start of on a good footing and have a good level of support. If there 
is any interest to mentor this project [1] it would be welcomed.

Thanks,
Paul Ramirez
