[DISCUSS] removing the 'proton/contrib/proton-hawtdispatch' module
As per the subject, I'd like to suggest removing
'proton/contrib/proton-hawtdispatch' module.
hawtdispatch itself doesn't appear to be seeing any development these
days, with only a handful of commits in the last couple years on
master, none in approaching a year, and the referenced website
appearing to be down. The proton-hawtdispatch module hasn't seen a
meaningful (non-version) commit in a couple years, and is itself using
an old release of hawtdispatch. The statistics repository.apache.org
gives for maven central usage suggest little use, with perhaps average
of 40 downloads a month from 10 IPs.
As the related project appears inactive, nobody is really maintaining
it, and few appear to be using it, I think it should be removed.
Thoughts?
Robbie

This has now been done via https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-1189

Those are the only two things in there right now, so yes removing both
would currently have that effect.
I'd judge anything new for contribution on its own merits, but in many
cases I'd think such things would be more appropriate in their own repo
going forward, with only the most core related things going in the main
repo.

+1 ... if we remove this and proton-jms, I presume the plan is to remove
contrib altogether - our history suggests that "contrib" sources are mostly
neglected after they are added to the codebase, so I'd be keen to try to
avoid them in the future :-)

Agreed, this seems like code that would be better off living in the
hawtdispatch project if someone really wanted to pick up that torch.
