Guys I have written an email to list the things we are working-in-progress and updated the issue template of alibaba/weex repo to announce that we will stop replying new issues any more from the end of this week.
Additionally, I could build a page named "how to contribute" on our website tomorrow. And then add the url to the issue template above. Thanks.

But yes it's not OK of course. Guys I have some suggestions: * First we should put more old information here, just like what plan we have made or how many issues we are doing with. * Migrate old alibaba/weex issues to apache gradually. * Stop replying new issues in alibaba/weex (at least at a appropriate time if not from now on). * Encourage Chinese users moving here MORE. * Try to guide more users abroad go to Apache directly (through Twitter, HackerNews ... I think). * We should pay more attention here. Thanks.

Are these old pieces of work that are pushed now, or is it new work? If the latter, how does people know what to work on? Perhaps it is simply totally independent pieces, driven by personal interest, BUT I SUSPECT that this is agreed upon at work, on some side channel or otherwise. And that is NOT OK. Apache projects are expected to have discussions on features and fixes on the mailing list. As the saying goes around here; "If it didn't happen on the mailing list, it didn't happen!" Additionally, all communication in GitHub Pull Requests could disappear tomorrow. The project's history would be gone as a result. No records of anything, other than the commit messages. So, everyone, I know this is difficult, especially since most of you are Chinese, probably with limited English fluency. But we need to get the discussion going HERE... not at work, not on WeChat, not on Slack, not on GitHub or any other medium... HERE.
