Hi! A number of apache-extras projects are "reserved names" that PMCs registered before the service was publicly announced.
(For reference: see a mail to PMCs of 12 Nov 2010 in archives of community-private) If one tries to access those names, they are redirected to official pages at apache .org. For example, [1] https://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/tomcat Are those names currently being migrated? As far as I see, those projects are not listed when I click on "Tomcat" label at front page [2], so it is hard to find them, but if I search by name (type "Tomcat" in the search box at [2] and press Enter), they are listed. Technically, my Google account is the owner of projects registered by Apache Tomcat PMC.
