Hi John,
It's hard to say. The project could revive if other Apache projects show
an interest in using MRQL as a query system for their projects and start
making contributions, but I don't see that happening any time soon.
Personally, I am willing to continue contributing to this project, but
this is a community effort. I would like to hear what the MRQL mentors
and the other PMC members have to say about the future of MRQL and the
possibility of retirement.

Hi Leonidas,
Do you think there's a path forward for MRQL? E.g. is there enough to
revive a community?

Hi John,
Yes, I think we should discuss retirement. MRQL has been dormant during
the last few months. MRQL is incubating for more than 4 years. We had 4
releases but very little community growth (one PMC member in 2014 and
one committer in 2016). I am disappointed but, frankly, I don't see how
to Increase the number of active committers and expand our user community.

All,
I'd like to understand the current status of MRQL and figure out if its
a project that should retire or not. It seems that activity has died off
this year, very little activity at all. The last was the logo change in
April and before that a small code fix in January.
Is the project planning to move forward?
John
