Hi Rich,

Yes, I agree with your approach. Sharing different experiences/examples
doesn't mean giving a "solution" to copy-paste. Said this, it would be
great to centralize the efforts in one place. We are also researching for
more examples.

Here are the confluence pages that could be used for this initiative:

1. Main page:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=112820458
-> Here, we could create a subpage in this tree.
2. Blog:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewrecentblogposts.action?key=EDI

-> Here, we could create blog posts for different examples.

Also, if you are interested, please see our Outreachy meeting notes here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/EDI/Outreachy+Working+Group+-+Meeting+notes

Initially, we set this meeting to talk about the Outreachy program only
however we have been including more topics during the last months.

Our meetings are biweekly, every second Wednesday, at 18:00H UTC time zone,
set for one hour but usually lasts 30 minutes. Our next meeting is on June
2nd. If you would like to attend, please share your email address and I
will add you to the invitation.

Thanks,
Katia
