Dear all, After thorough consideration, we are going to decline chacloud as our project name. As 'cha' may represent the pronunciation of '差' (which means bad) in chinese, as some of our members pointed out after the announcement. Sorry that we did not realize this implication when choosing candidates. We will reconsider an appropriate project name.
We are still determined to join our project into Apache Incubator. So besides the project name, please help evaluate other aspects of our project. Your comments are welcome. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/YunionCloud++Proposal Also, we are still hiring more mentors. If you are interested in being a mentor of our project, please do not hesitate to join us.
