While considering the project/product interesting I am curious how the proposers and champion see this becoming a success as an ASF podling/project. Currently there seems to be only one adopter (Yahoo), and for most the contributors are paid employees (of Yahoo).
Looking at the provided repo, and actions thereon, I see only 22 contributors referenced as contributors whose code has been committed. Are not all interested in joining the podling, or don't they just want to be referenced in the proposal as initial contributors/committers? Looking at the list of initial contributors/committers I see Matteo Merli. According to the proposal he is affiliated with an organisation called Streaml.io. But according to LinkedIn he is affiliated with Yahoo. Which one should be corrected. Furthermore I see a lot of forks (250 up to today) of the main repo on GitHub, yet I don't see a lot of activity (code changes) reverting back to the main repo. I fear this will be a podling with a very small base (adoption and contribution wise).
