This is such a difficult call. Will OOo at Apache take off sufficiently
to contribute something of value to the ecosystem, or will it fail,
taking goodwill with it? Will it create division in the community, or
does that division already exist, and creating the podling will simply

disruption and delay it's causing to the OOo ecosystem, does not add

Hi Kazunari,
that's an explanation of the role Champion as it can be found at the

The Champion is a person already associated with Apache who leads the
proposal process. It is common - but not necessary - for the Champion
to also be proposed as a Mentor.
