This decision was approved by Apache Taverna PPMC:

Binding votes:

+1 Sagar
+1 Ian Dunlop
+1 Andy Seaborne
+1 Stian Soiland-Reyes

I'll notify IPMC and then contact INFRA on how we can retire/transfer
these repositories.

I've raised this with INFRA to transfer
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-16698

I've also modified the repositories so they no longer have incubator
DISCLAIMER or claim they are part of Apache Taverna (E.g. changed
package name).
