Hello Mirosław,

Thanks for letting us know about this.    You are correct in saying
that this is not an official release from Apache. In fact this is the
first time I've heard of this app.

We'll check with the publishers of the app and try to clear this up.
Hopefully it just a simple misunderstanding.

Regards,

Rob
