Hi all, I propose to retire the UIMA C++ SDK on Dec 21 2022.
The original creators and maintainers of UIMA C++ SDK are no longer working on it leaving the codebase unmaintained. We currently have no CI build set up for UIMA C++ SDK. We do not know if it remains compatible with the latest developments in the UIMA Java SDK and nobody has the resources to be testing it even manually. As part of retiring this sub-project, I suggest we should: * remove it from the UIMA website's download section * remove references to it in general from the UIMA website except maybe keeping a reference to the archived downloads * put up a note in the git repo stating that the project is retired, does no longer get updates and may contain bugs or security problems. * ask INFRA to mark the github mirror as archived - or - if they prefer remove the github mirror completely only keeping an archived mirror at the ASF. [ ] +1 - go on and retire [ ] 0 - I don't care [ ] -1 - do not retire Note that anybody voting -1 should step up as a new maintainer at the same time. Best, -- Richard
