Mailing list, open issue tracker and other communication > channels have always been adopted since its first releases. The > adoption in a larger community, such as Apache, is the natural > evolution for 99soft components. Moreover, the Apache standards will > enforce the existing 99soft community practices and will be a > foundation for future committers involvement. > > == Core Developers == > In alphabetical order: > > * Christian Grobmeier <grobmeier at apache dot org> > * Daniel Manzke <daniel dot manzke at googlemail dot com> > * Davide Palmisano <dpalmisano at apache dot org> > * Marco Speranza <marcosperanza at apache dot org> > * Nino Martinez Wael <nino dot martinez dot wael at gmail dot com> > * Simone Tripodi <simonetripodi at apache dot org> > > === Regular Contributors === > In alphabetical order: > > * Cody Ray <cray at brighttag dot com> > * Ghislain "Picpoc" Touratier <ghislain dot touratier at gmail dot com> > * Ioannis Canellos <iocanel at apache dot org> > * Jordi Gerona <jordi at donky dot org> > * Marzia Forli <marzia dot forli at yahoo.com> > * Pawel Poltorak <pawel dot poltorak at gmail.com> > * Thilo-Alexander Ginkel <thilo at ginkel dot com> > > == Alignment == > The Apache Onami project is intended to be portable and be fully > compatible with Google Guice. To promote the adoption of this project, > we believe that it is important that it remains free from corporate > association and is perceived by the community to be vendor neutral.
