Same here, I wouldn't even try to find another home for "commons-ee" since this one is well known, works well and any other place wouldn't make more sense. On the server itself I fear there is not enough "resource" ATM to upgrade to EE 7 (even TomEE which is a bit more active has some issues to completely target it).
My question is then: what does it mean? Or said otherwise: what's the issue with current state? Is the target to rewamp the website (don't think we need to change much repos)?
