Hi,

the topic of official GIT repos for apache projects has been raised again a 
few weeks ago on infrastructure-dev@a.o.[1] However I can't see who is doing 
what in which direction over there, if anything is moving at all.

I proposed a draft for a requirements document for the GIT setup and suggested 
to give Gerrit a try. There hasn't been a reply however since more than two 
weeks. Gerrit is a repository manager developed for the android project and 
also used by the repository foundation. It includes patch review, workflow and 
CLA-tracking.

Now my question is, whether there's some interest from developers to give 
Gerrit a try? In this case, I'd setup a private toy instance and import your 
project.
I don't want to shoot anybody from infrastructure-dev@a.o in the back. I just 
think it would help to have some hands-on experience so that people can make 
better judgements.

Best regards,
