Hi

I've just created the issue for this connector [1]. Moreover, I already
sent an email to [email protected] requesting becoming a mentor for the
Apache ManifoldCF project.
The next step is to send an email to the Manifold PMC mail list to receive
the acknowledge.
Could you point me to the address for that list?
And in order to move forward, the next steps for after sending the email.

Regards
