Hi Feel free to add you as mentor on the proposal. I think 4 mentors is fine.
About the name, we already changed the name for the proposal (OSI is not an option due to obvious name conflict with other projects and initiatives). I put Apache Ossie in the proposal as “anticipation”, showing that we already thought about the name. I can remove Apache naming from the proposal if it’s confusing.
