This is great, we would love to have you on board. I think that the mailing
list is a good place to start, or did you have any concrete thoughts on
collaboration between the ARIA comminity and OASIS?

Gigaspaces is a great supoprter of OASIS TOSCA for a long time now and is
working with OASIS and other standartization bodies and open soruces
communites.
It is important to note here that although Gigaspaces started ARIA, the
goal of project Apache ARIA-TOSCA is to build a vendor neutral, and
technology agnostic(2 of the main pillars of TOSCA) community around an
open source implemintation of TOSCA. The community runs under the Apache
Software Foundation guidelines and as we build an open governance model for
the project.

Awesome, happy to hear Clouidfy works well for you. :)
ARIA will become the next-get orchestration engine in the next version of
Clouidfy.
