This idea was born out of Unknown User (bigbluehat)'s Upgrading Our Apache talk (see slides) at ApacheCon NA 2016. The hope is to create an opportunity to get interested developers together to take practical action and/or begin contributing to these projects.

Vision: improved tools all the places!

Mission: bring more activity and developers to projects that need them.

Goals:

• increase contribution to the many ASF "self-focused" projects (PonyMail, Phonebook, etc)
• find areas where contributors want more tooling (wiki-access request, cross-project navigation "widget", etc)

Potential Projects:

• Community Website
• Phonebook
• projects.apache.org
• PonyMail
• mod_mbox
• ...and?
