Thanks a lot for handling the source import and related tasks, Jukka! I'll look after the website later this week.

Makes sense. How far did the ICLA collection effort go already? Just the main committers or also the authors of any non-trivial contribution in the past? I think that's a prerequisite to a first release, isn't it? > I've tentatively added a 0.8.0-incubator release tag in the issue > tracker.

Since the project goes through a major change right now, the package change together with the switch to 0.8.x makes sense to me. It also emphasizes the move to the ASF. But that's just me.
