IIRC, JSPWiki had exactly the same issue when it entered the incubator. There were a non-Apache release or two while it was incubating, using the non-Apache package names, hosted on non-Apache servers and announced on non-Apache mail lists.
Since it wasn't an Apache release, it was not announced on announce at apache.org but was announced on the Apache incubating user and dev lists. I think Storm could do the same. There is specific interest in the incubating Storm community but not general interest in the wider Apache community. Craig On Nov 15, 2013, at 7:10 AM, P. Taylor Goetz wrote: > Agreed.
