    Mark the component as retired for the final release
    
    The PMC vote to retire Maven Shared IO passed on 2026-09-07. Do not drop
    the "(RETIRED)" suffix or the front page notice: the released 3.1.0
    artifact and its published site are the only places a user who never read
    dev@ will learn that this component is dead.

+# Apache Maven Shared I/O API
+
+**Note:** This component is retired. It is no longer maintained.
+Version 3.1.0 is its final release.
+
+API for I/O support like logging, download or file scanning.
+
+The Maven project voted to retire this component in September 2026, because it
+had no remaining consumers and its download package cannot be carried to Maven 4
+without breaking its published API. See the
+[retirement vote](https://lists.apache.org/thread/s4oz3g4ytqpsy6odryxqhygwbty3dqt3).
+
+If you want to continue development, fork the code under your own groupId and
+artifactId. The `maven-` artifactId prefix is reserved for the Apache Maven
+project, so the fork needs a different name.
