[annotator-dev] [DRAFT at 2] Apache Incubator Proposal

Tue May 31 15:55:51 UTC 2016

Hi Benjamin and Oliver,

does it still make sense to add my name to the initial committers list?
I don't have code in annotator.js but I have a small annotator plugin
and annotation-related code in digilib. Can I use the MPI for History of
Science I am working for as affiliation?

Or is there another list for people that are interested in collaborating
but don't have code in annotator.js?

Thanks
	Robert
