Hi Roman,
I sent the email to board@ last week after the incubator vote closed
following the instructions at

However, I missed subscribing to board@ first, so my email might be stuck
waiting for moderation.

> including
> >>>>> popular ‘big-data' frameworks.

> >>>>>Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
