[ROLL CALL] Status of this project / time to consider retiring?

[Justin Mclean <ju...@classsoftware.com>]

Hi,

There been no activity on this project for more than four months. All projects at Apache have a start and an end, and I think its become time for this project consider retiring to the Attic.

The PPMC has failed to submit several reports in a row (although one failed to get mentor sign off). If any of the PPMC members are still active, please indicate so by responding to this email.

If you think the project can choose a different path that retiring to the Attic, please speak up. Note that retirement doesn’t mean an end to the project as the work could carry on elsewhere.

Kind Regards,
Justin

I saw YorkShen did a lot of work last year, but it's not sustainable
if other PPMC members don't step in.
It's important to build a healthy community around the project, PPMC
should take this into consideration as their daily job.

+0 about retirement.

As a developer who spent lots of time on this project over the last three
years, I think I have a word to say.

I felt burned (mentally and physically) about this project and I chose to
spend much less time on this project this year, which turns out great. I
love the project and ideas behind, but it's just too much work for me.

I sincerely hope someone could take the burden and make the project a step
forward.

Best Regards,
YorkShen

Hi,

Sorry I got that wrong only top level projects retire to the attic, incubating projects do not. This is done to save a copy of the code. If this podling retires from the incubator it could continue on GitHub or a similar platform.

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Justin,


Sorry for the absence in the community. Weex is still maintained in our
company (Alibaba), but may not operate well in the Apache way. We'll
discuss the future plan of this project among PPMC members, and give a
final decision in a few weeks.


By the way, I wonder what's the actual effect of "retiring to the Attic",
will the project be removed from ASF after that?


Best Regards,

Hanks Zhang
