Congratulations on your release! I recommend changing your description to make it clearer what Slider is for. It's not clear what YARN is from your description, and googling "Yarn" isn't necessarily going to turn up any results about Hadoop. I've never working with "big data", but maybe adding "Apache Hadoop" in front of YARN would be sufficient. An ideal description would include a concise description of YARN as well, but that seems to be difficult, according to the YARN page.
=== Apache Slider (incubating) is an Apache Hadoop YARN application which deploys existing distributed applications on YARN, monitors them, and makes them larger or smaller as desired - even while the application is running. === Note that I'm not on the dev mailing list, so you'll have to cc me back (although no response is necessary or expected).
