Hi *, since some of you requested a version of Shindig that is just working out of the box with no lengthy installation and configuration, we've finally published our Docker image of Shindig 2.5.2 running on Apache Tomcat 7 with Open JDK 7 and our integration code to use neo4j (1.98) as a storage backend. This version has some additional enhancements compared to the original version like friend suggestions based on existing friends and their connections as well as queries to determine the connections between two people. It can be downloaded from Docker Hub https://hub.docker.com/r/rpeinl/shindig-ws-neo4j/ I hope that helps some of you to get up to speed. Feedback welcome. Regards René

Hi friends, after gathering all your wishes, proposals and votes on the recently created Trello <https://trello.com/b/hUTQuH6q/codename-apache-shindig-2015> board toady a new open source organization over at GitHub under the name of OpenDashboards <https://github.com/orgs/OpenDashboards> has been created that will be used as our common placeholder for all the things we want to see happening from now on. In order to send out invitations to anyone that wishes to join this new effort, please make sure you have a GitHub account and post it back to me either as a reply to this email or directly through our new Slack <https://opendashboards.slack.com> space (channel *github-org*). For those who still haven't signed up with the OpenDashboards Slack team, please send me your email as well and I will send you an invitation. Please keep in mind that although this new effort has started off as a shelter for the Apache Shindig project can clearly have a bright future, since 'dashboarding' is and will be a common requirement for many companies, organizations and individual technology solutions. Having stated that, I have a vision that OpenDashboards can easily become the next one-stop shop for diverse dashboarding solutions given the appropriate context and positioning in the technology space. I believe that we should all urge the companies we represent to join the effort and contribute to the evolution of an ecosystem we all could benefit from. Also, we could start building collaborations with other open source projects and solutions in the same space, or even with various verticals in order to start getting attention and traction. Now that we have a new home, the next step is to transfer the Apache Shindig project to a new repository @ Github at its latest stable version. So, @Ryan can you give us the status from your side (and Apache's of course)? Have you cleared things up regarding the transfer?
