Hi folks, I guess you've seen a lot of activity in the mailing list today. To keep you updated:

So far we successfully submitted Apache Organisation to Outreachy and filled out sponsors details for initial round. We are currently working in different tasks posted in Jira. You are welcome to help us, give some comments or join us in our calls.
