Hi, Justin, about the proposal, we have already mentioned that 'with
the current contributors primarily coming from Xiaomi', and also 'the
majority of core developers working on the OzHera project are salaried
by Xiaomi', which reflects the current status of the project.

Let me put the related sections below.

Homogenous Developers

OzHera originated from Xiaomi, with the current contributors primarily
coming from Xiaomi. It has also attracted members from different
companies such as JD.com, Kwai, Shopee, and others. We are actively
seeking more companies and individuals to participate in this project.

Reliance on Salaried Developers

Currently, the majority of core developers working on the OzHera
project are salaried by Xiaomi. We look forward to attracting more
individuals and companies outside of Xiaomi to join this project,
whether they are small and medium-sized enterprises or individual
developers, as long as they have enthusiasm for the OzHera project.

About the text you mentioned, I think we just want to point out that
outstanding and exceptional contributors are very important to a
project, and the contributors from other companies and individuals are
encouraged. We could rephrase this section to make it more clear.

And in the discussion thread, the team also mentioned that they have
already attracted some external developers, although the contributions
are not enough to make them initial committers. We hope that during
the incubation time the project can build a diverse community, and
finally successfully graduate and become a TLP. Of course there are
risks that the project fails to do so and can not graduate, but I do
not think this is a blocker for entering the incubator right?

And thanks Ayush for the suggestion about mentors. All mentors of the
project are not from Xiaomi, we will try our best to help the project
to build a diverse community during the incubation time.
