Thanks for all your efforts on this! It would be good to add a md file with all 
this info and link it from the webpage and main README.md

A couple of follow-ons:

1. I’m playing around with Milestones as a way to track long running feature 
groups across version releases — ie JMS 3.0/2.1

2. Project names need to be fully qualified ‘Apache ActiveMQ v6.3.0’ — this 
allows for better visibility across orgs and repos. 

3. Projects allow us to link issues in dependencies in other orgs/repos that 
fix things that we find or are related to a release for easier discovery by 
end-users.

More to come!

Thanks,
Matt Pavlovich
