+Title: About Apache CloudStack
+
+## Open Source Cloud Computing: Apache CloudStack
+
+Apache CloudStack is a top-level project of the Apache Software Foundation 
(ASF). The project develops open source software for deploying public and 
private Infrastructure-as-a-Service clouds.
+
+CloudStack provides an open and flexible cloud orchestration platform to 
deliver reliable and scalable private and public clouds. 
+
+### Apache CloudStack History
+
+The CloudStack project began as a project of a start-up known as VMOps in 
2008. The company eventually changed its name to Cloud.com, and it released 
much of the source to CloudStack in May 2010 under the GNU General Public 
License version 3 (GPLv3). 
+
+Cloud.com was purchased in July 2011 by Citrix, and the remainder of 
CloudStack's code was released (again, under the GPLv3) in August 2011. Citrix 
released CloudStack 3.0 in early 2012.
+
+In April 2012, Citrix re-licensed CloudStack under the Apache Software License 
2.0 (ASLv2) and submitted CloudStack to the [Apache 
Incubator](http://incubator.apache.org/). It was [accepted into the Incubator 
on April 16th, 2012](http://incubator.apache.org/projects/cloudstack.html). 
+
+After getting its infrastructure and community processes in place, CloudStack 
made its first major release (4.0.0-incubating) from the Apache Incubator on 
November 6th, 2012. The first minor release (4.0.1-incubating) came out on 
February 12, 2013. 
+
+Apache CloudStack graduated from the Incubator on March 20, 2013, and the 
announcement was released on [March 25, 
2013](https://blogs.apache.org/cloudstack/entry/the_apache_software_foundation_announces).
 
+
+### People of Apache CloudStack
+
+Apache projects are managed by a [Project Management 
Committee](http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#what-is-a-pmc) (PMC), and much of 
the work is done by the project's 
[committers](http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html). Note that committer 
status is *not* limited to developers, but is conferred to individuals who have 
made sustained contributions of high quality, and have shown a committment to 
mentoring other contributors and following the Apache Way.
+
+The current Vice President of Apache CloudStack and chair of the PMC is Chip 
Childers, a full list of PMC members and contributors is available on the page 
*[Who We Are](/who.html)*.
