Following up on this, the d...@mysos.incubator.apache.org list has been
created and a thread has been started about the project name. A name search
has also been created [1] and linked on the project status page [2].

>> Mysos Proposal
>>
>> Abstract
>>
>> Mysos is an Apache Mesos framework for running MySQL instances.
>>
>> Proposal
>>
>> Mysos runs on Apache Mesos (cluster manager) to dramatically simplify the
>> management of MySQL instances. It is designed to offer:
>>
>> Efficient hardware utilization through multi-tenancy (in
>> performance-isolated containers)
>> High reliability through preserving the MySQL state during failure and
>> automatic backing up to/restoring from HDFS
>> An automated self-service option for bringing up new MySQL clusters
>> High availability through automatic MySQL master failover
>> An elastic solution that allows users to easily scale up and down a MySQL
>> cluster by changing the number of slave instances
>> Background
>>
>> Initial development of Mysos was done at Twitter, and its codebase was
>> recently open sourced. This proposal is for Mysos to join the Apache
>> Incubator.
>>
>> Rationale
>>
>> Mysos is built to be used by anyone who desires to run MySQL on Apache
>> Mesos, and in the near-future it will take advantage of state primitives
>> that are being added to the Mesos core:
>> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1554
>>
>> Furthermore, the rapid growth of Mysos community is empowered by open
>> source. We believe the Apache Foundation is a great fit as the long-term
>> home for Mysos, as it provides an established process for community-driven
>> development and decision making by consensus.
>>
>> Initial Goals
>>
>> Move the existing codebase to Apache
>> Integrate with the Apache development process
>> Ensure all dependencies are compliant with Apache License version 2.0
>> Strengthen and grow the Mysos community
>> Incremental development and releases per Apache guidelines
>> Current Status
>>
>> Mysos was originally born out of a project within Twitter. The original
>> committers (Twitter) are working with Mesosphere and Percona to fully open
>> source the code and make it ready for incubation at Apache.
>>
>> The Mysos source is currently hosted at GitHub, which will be used to
>> seed the Apache git repository.
>>
>> Meritocracy

>> Community

>>
>> Inexperience with Open Source
>>
>> Most of the committers have experience at Apache, whether it's through

>> Homogenous Developers

>> Initial committers come from a number of companies. Our intention is
