We've discussed Apache-built/distributed packages before, and nobody
has any objections, but we need somebody to take on the work to get
the package builds setup. I believe Vinod had some thoughts on how to
get started, but any Apache committer (Zameer?) should have access to
builds.apache.org
I think we're all also in favor of improved documentation/website for
the Apache Mesos project, but we need your help for that too. File
JIRAs, submit patches!
