I need a 150 word description of the Avro project as part of us becoming a TLP. If I don't hear from anyone, I'll just go ahead and write one myself. I wanted to check if anyone already had something more than we put on our docs page.
Also, what high-profile users can we publicly talk about? Thanks -Matt Here is an example from Cassandra: About Apache Cassandra Apache Cassandra is an advanced, second-generation "NoSQL" distributed data store that has a shared-nothing architecture. The Cassandra decentralized model provides massive scalability, and is highly available with no single point of failure even under the worst scenarios. Originally developed at Facebook and submitted to the ASF Incubator in 2009, Cassandra graduated as a Top-Level Apache Project in February 2010, added more than a half-dozen new committers, and is deployed by dozens of high-profile users such as Cisco WebEx, Cloudkick, Digg, Facebook, Rackspace, Reddit, and Twitter, among others.
