Sorry, I don't think it's being ignored, just that the rest of us are not
able to see the same issues.

For example I see over 30 committers on the Sentry status page.
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/sentry.html
That doesn't indicate a project that's hard to join. Sentry has been in
incubation for over 2 years, it's pretty mature and as Sravya highlighted
there's a bunch of good information for folks trying to join. Above and
beyond jira and ML discussions.
