Hi all, On June 5th I sent an email soliciting anyone in the community who was interested in being more involved in the project to make themselves known, as they are needed by the community. I didn't see a response from anyone. As you can see in the minutes of the ASF board meetings, there's been a significant decrease in community activity: https://whimsy.apache.org/board/minutes/Sentry.html. In fact there is virtually none at the moment. It may be time to move the project to the Apache Attic: https://attic.apache.org/. It's worth noting that, as others before me have said, this isn't a bad thing and it isn't a final thing either. If there is renewed interest in the future, the Apache Attic leadership is supportive of linking to active forks, and there is a process to revive the project to its current status. This is often a natural part of a project's lifecycle.
If there is a desire for the project to continue, or if you are actively using or working on things related to Apache Sentry, please speak up! 3 active PMC members are required for the project to continue, and I'm more than happy to be one of those 3 active PMC members to help oversee the community. We would welcome new contributors too. However I'm no longer in a position to actively develop the project myself, and that seems to be true generally. I personally think it's best for everyone if the project moves to the Attic. Unless there are objections, I'll start a thread on the public dev list soon for PMC members to vote on a move to the Apache Attic.
