So I think these are the same points I was bringing up as well.  I suspect
its a case where there wasn't a ton of open source development on the
product and it was kept internal.

I'm still a bit leary about the "relationship with other apache products"
section still.  I'm not interested in seeing how a podling competes with
other projects (and its a bit surprising, since Bruce is the chair of one
of the competitors), but instead how the podling has synergies with the
other components.  I raised that they're using ASF projects today in their
code base.

Some other ways to address this section:

- How can RocketMQ work with the existing Kafka or ActiveMQ communities to
build cross platform clients?
- How can RocketMQ look to leverage Cassandra, Geode, Derby as backend
persistence stores?

etc..
