Given that the project has been in incubation for ten months now I, as
a mentor, find it quite concerning that there is still no Apache
hosted site, that lists are only now starting to be migrated (and even
then only with a note in the footer). Of course I do have some
understanding of why this is the case, but at the same time there are
many projects that face the same kinds of issues that Jena faces.

I suggest that as well as reporting progress there should be a one
line explanation as to why it's taking such a long time to move the
community here. Given that the main motivation was to build community
it is somewhat of a worry that the approach being taken is, shall we
say, unusual.

Other projects of the scale of Jena (in fact in many cases much
larger) found that a wholesale migration was much more effective. I am
aware we discussed this on entry and the project community decided to
take it slowly, but just how slowly is healthy?
