This is great! +1 to the phased approach mentioned in the document of starting with the Java driver, and then including the learnings if any into the rest of the drivers' donation. Also excited about the documentation donation - it will be nice to not have to depend on the mentioned proprietary tool, but I guess we will have to weigh that against the current void in Apache C* documentation and as long as there is a good path forward by at least identifying a replacement tool (if not migrating), it should fine I suppose.
