Some projects have created @apache.org accounts in the past for their
students, and asked for them to be disabled after GSoC if the student
isn't elected as a committer. AFAIK that's still possible (and a good
additional incentive for the student to become a committer ;-)

Right, but if would have been cool to discuss this here, I don't
remember seeing this.

A moderator can accept the first moderation message with "reply all"
so that future ones don't need to be moderated in.

Could you setup those notifications? That would IMO be a first step
towards making Kritarth's work more visible here.

Please do, and IMO the earlier that engine is contributed the better.

Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh if my comments, but I think the GSoC
midterm evaluation that's happening these days is a great opportunity
to bring this project back on track community-wise, and start making
it happen inside the Stanbol community instead of alongside it - that
makes all the difference.

Thanks very much for your work as a mentor, and thanks to Kritarth as well!
