<p class="last"><strong>Disclaimer</strong>: Apache Superset is an effort undergoing incubation at The
Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator.
Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further
review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and
decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with
other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not
necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of
the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully
endorsed by the ASF.</p>
