This is great to see interest from your team @xiaozhu36, the Crossplane community will definitely benefit from having a well maintained provider to manage Alibaba Cloud resources. Thank you for your initiative and efforts here! 🙇‍♂

I've gone ahead and created https://github.com/crossplane-contrib/provider-upjet-alibabacloud. Do you want to open an initial pull request with the basics, including the OWNERS file with all maintainers, and then we'll get everything set up? Thanks!
