Yeah, and regarding groups/community - here you will find all the links https://airflow.apache.org/community/ so you can start there.
Agree with XD - some critical mass should be reached with people who can test it with Alibaba as I think currently we are not really familiar here I am afraid. After you join slack - I just created a channel in slack #airflow-alibaba (similar to #airlfow-gcp, #airflow-aws) - I think your best bet is to query there and ask people if they will be able to join it and start some discussion/work.
