The cloud-team could probably be a reasonable umbrella under which the package could be co-maintained. Would you be interested in co-maintaining it as part of that team? I'm not sure any of us have a lot of expertise or desire to work with C++, but we've got a lot of familiarity with cloud services, etc, and maintain other cloud service SDKs. If you can contribute on the C++ side, we could probably effectively maintain the package together. Of course, if others are already looking into packaging, they should by all means continue, with or without coordinating with the cloud-team. noah
