Some tips on posting the announcement: Be sure to a) use plain text, b) use the word [ANNOUNCE] or [ANN] in the subject line, and c) include a link for more information/download. Also do include the word "(Incubating)" after the first mention of Apache Flink, to read "Apache Flink (Incubating)".

well written. I would rewrite the first sentence of the "What is Flink?" section to something like: "Apache Flink is a general-purpose data processing engine for clusters. It runs on Hadoop components such as HDFS and YARN, as well as stand-alone." Rational: - Flink isn't new (and immature). The
