Greetings,

I would like to propose Pekko [1]  as a new Apache Incubator project.

Pekko is a toolkit that brings the actor model (popularised by Erlang) to
the JVM, providing the basis for building both locally and distributed
concurrency. On top of this Pekko provides a rich set of libraries built on
top of Actors to solve modern problems, including:


   - Streams: Fully bi-directional backpressured streams following the
   Reactive manifesto
   - HTTP: A fully streamed HTTP client/server built on top of streams that
   also provides expected tools (such as connection pooling) necessary for
   highly available web services
   - connectors: A rich set of connectors for various databases, messaging,
   persistent services built on top of streams
   - grpc: A gRPC server/client
   - projection: Provides abstractions necessary for CQRS pattern such as
   envelope, necessary for systems such as Kafka.



Controversially Pekko is a fork of the Akka project just prior to its
licence changed from Apache 2 to Business Source License 1.1.

I look forward to your feedback and discussions,

Thank you,
Claude Warren
