For those who may not be aware, Alibaba has donated JStorm to Apache Storm, and 
we have completed the IP Clearance process. JStorm is a fork of Storm with the 
clojure components reimplemented in Java, and includes a number of enhancements 
in terms of performance and features. JStorm is used widely in production at 
Alibaba across many different areas.

Of equal importance is the JStorm community, which has expressed a commitment 
to join forces with the Apache Storm community to bring JStorm’s improvements 
to Apache Storm and collaborate on new features and improvements.

Over the coming days and weeks we will have a number of discussions on the dev@ 
list regarding how to best approach merging both the incoming code and 
associated community.

Please join me in welcoming the JStorm contributors to the Apache Storm 
community.


JStorm community:

Welcome abord! We’re glad you’re here.

As you’ve probably noticed, all discussions and decision making at Apache takes 
place on the mailing list in English. I understand that might be a burden for 
non-English speakers, but there a number of Apache Storm contributors that 
speak both English and Chinese that would likely be willing to help translate. 
Google translate, while not perfect, is also helpful in some cases. We don’t 
expect perfect translation — just enough to get your point across is fine.

When signing your name on an email, etc., please use the western name of 
yourself and others. This makes it easier for those of us who can't read Asian 
characters to identify individuals.

If you’re new to Apache and the way it works, here is a good starting point for 
learning “The Apache Way”:

Feel free to introduce yourself to the Storm community by replying to this 
thread and letting us know a little more about yourself.

Again, thank you and welcome!
