Hi Justin,

Gallery [1] is a platform to show the community's works with ECharts. It is
not owned by
ECharts PPMC. So we previously removed its link from the Website navigator.
And it does
not claim to be an official Apache ECharts (incubating) product. Would that
be OK?

I've made a pull request to echarts-for-react [2] and asked the author to
change the repo's
description. And I updated awesome-echarts [3] project.

awesome-echarts and vue-echarts are under an organization of Baidu. But
neither of them
claim to be an official ECharts project. So perhaps they are just like any
other ECharts
related project like xxx-echarts.
Basically, we allow the existence of an xxx-echarts project as long as it
does not claim to be
an official ECharts project or stating something like "Baidu ECharts". We
won't ask the
maintainers to explicitly add a note saying "Apache ECharts (incubating)"
just like there
are plenty of cordova plugins and they don't have to add "Apache Cordova"
in their name
or description.
I'm not sure if this seems to be OK. If not, let's have a further
discussion on this
and find a better way out since there are so many third-party libraries
related to ECharts
and some of them are no longer maintained for years. :)

Post incubation Baidu versions of ECharts are officially called ECharts,
but some people
do call it Baidu ECharts occasionally. We are trying our best to let more
people know that
ECharts is now a project under incubation at Apache. But since the previous
users are so
many, it does take some time to let more people understand.
