The vote to declare the Apache OpenNLP 1.9.x release line as
End-of-Life (EOL) has passed.

- The OpenNLP website will be updated to reflect the EOL status of
OpenNLP 1.9.x and encourage users to upgrade to 2.x. I will make this
PR for opennlp-website.
- No further releases or patch builds will be produced for the 1.9.x line.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the discussion and vote!

Thanks,
Jeff
