Note that the ASF doesn't have a technical strategy, on purpose, as we
"just" provide space for our projects to flourish. So what the project
does is not really relevant to incubating at the ASF.

As Andrew mentioned, the first step for a project to join the ASF is
to prepare an incubation proposal, see
https://incubator.apache.org/cookbook/ for how that works.

The ASF cannot "adopt" code without explicit permission from whoever
owns that code, so besides an initial community a Software License
Grant would be needed, as per
https://www.apache.org/licenses/contributor-agreements.html

I see at https://github.com/adobe/brackets that Adobe is encouraging
people to fork on GitHub if they want to continue developing the
software. That's cool, but I don't think that's sufficient for the ASF
to adopt that code, an explicit donation of the code to the ASF would
be needed.
