[DISCUSS] Attic Contribution process to newbie
Hi All,
I recently came across one scenario where a project (ambari) is revived and
became the TLP.
As this was not covered in the attic site[1], I would like to update in the
following[2] doc with the something like following for future
reference.(Might not very critical but i feel it's better to have as doc
persist longer)
" TLP project can be revived as TLP again if three ASF members are
involved to bring it back".
Currently the contribution process is unknown to me as the attic is based
on SVN, any pointers here..?
and any chance to move to git..?

I improved the Attic main page to clarify the 2 main options to leave the Attic
= fork outside ASF or recreate at ASF
Clearly, the previous flat 4 options were not helping at they should
on helping with Attic site, svn does not help much providing patches: I'll ask infra to create a svn2git mirror so we'll be able to get PRs
We'll see later if/how we switch to Git first: this will at least imply to change CI and site publication, perhaps other automation, so we need to go step by step
On documenting the mechanical steps to bringing back a project, I feel that it won't be used much, then will not be ready when necessary (in 5 years?).
Sebb created ATTIC-206 for the only real problem we had: removing files in the site has currently to be manual, it would be nice if it could be automatic.
Everything else is really just undoing what was done during the move to Attic, and is so exceptional that I don't see much value in writing.
But once we have a Git mirror, this will provide PRs and review process, perhaps there will be good PRs proposed, finding the right balance

Hervé

To pile on top of what Brahma is saying, I'd like to suggest we
document all the mechanical steps of bringing a project back to
mirror:
https://attic.apache.org/process.html
but in reverse.
WDYAT?
Thanks,
Roman.
