Apache has a process for retiring inactive top-level and incubator projects. It's not immediate but it does happen quite often.

Apache has a process for retiring inactive top-level and incubator projects. It's not immediate but it does happen quite often.
- tialaramex 9y agoIndeed it does. That's the process which was mooted last September. However contributors _and Apache Board Members_ chimed in to announce that Apache OpenOffice was healthy and would continue. They managed, weeks laters, to spit out a release containing almost literally just one bug fix and then nothing since. So long as Board Members pretend everything is fine the Apache process won't trigger. This has become about the ego of Board Members versus the interests of the wider community.
