Shepherd/Mentor notes:
Flavio Junqueira:
The project has been progressing well despite the absence of a release.
The community has put a release candidate together, but unfortunately we
didn't that it was missing a few important additions and changes (e.g.,
DISCLAIMER and license header). I'm happy with the community development.
There is interest and new contributors are continuously joining.
