Archiving / deleting repositories

Hi all,

we have a bunch of repositories on GitHub which we do not really use.
They are mirrors of old SVN repos, retired projects or redundant projects.
I have already requested INFRA to archive/make private the uimaFIT repo
since uimaFIT has been merged into UIMAJ.

Now there are some left here and I was wondering if anybody has any opinion
on how to deal with them. Here is the list and my suggestion.

If you have any feedback, please provide.

Cheers,

-- Richard

----

# uima-site 		Apache UIMA Website

GitHub:  		https://github.com/apache/uima-site
SVN:  			https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/site

The canonical site repo is still SVN. I don't think we need the GitHub mirror.



# uima-build 		Mirror of Apache UIMA build

GitHub: 		https://github.com/apache/uima-build
SVN: 			https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/build

I believe this is no longer needed at all because it is now covered by
- https://github.com/apache/uima-parent-pom
- https://github.com/apache/uima-build-resources



# uima-addons 		Mirror of Apache UIMA addons

GitHub:			https://github.com/apache/uima-addons
SVN: 			https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/addons

This is not really maintained anymore. IMHO we should retire it and then archive it or possibly even make the repo private.



# uima-sandbox 		Mirror of Apache UIMA sandbox

GitHub:			https://github.com/apache/uima-sandbox
SVN: 			https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/sandbox

This is not really maintained anymore. IMHO we should retire it and then archive it or possibly even make the repo private.


# uima-ducc  		Apache UIMA Ducc

GitHub: https://github.com/apache/uima-ducc

Has ben retired. IMHO we should just archive it or possibly even make the repo private.



# uima-async-scaleout  	Apache UIMA UIMA Asynchronous Scaleout (UIMA-AS)

GitHub: https://github.com/apache/uima-async-scaleout

Has ben retired. IMHO we should just archive it or possibly even make the repo private.

@Pablo

I see you set up the site mirror. Do you still have any plans of using that
maybe to set up a modern version of the site?

Hi Richard,

+1 to your suggestions. I suggest archiving the UIMA-AS and DUCC repos.

Eddie
