Hi all
after Gump's last board report one of the members asked whether we
aren't disturbed by not adding any new committers for many years now
(actually I don't believe anybody who is a not a PMC member already has
posted anything to ths list for years).

And whether Gump really mostly is on life-support for the benefit of
Tomcat. Given that the only person who has done anything for a long time
has been Mark and he has done so for the benefit of Tomcat, this may be
a proper description of where we are.
I think it is a shame many of the projects have moved away from Gump
over the years. But we are where we are.
Tomcat continues to get some benefit from Gump although it is mostly
early warning of changes to default cipher suites in OpenSSL and we
haven't have that many of those changes over the last few years.
I think it is fair to say only Tomcat is benefiting from Gump now.
TBH I don't see Gump adding new projects anymore
Agreed.
and my personal
involvement has been reduced to writing more or less the same report
every quarter - mainly checking it still accurately describes the
situation.
I'm not suggesting terminating Gump but I wonder whether there is any
benefit in keeping it as a TLP if no other project is interested
anymore.
What are the other options if it isn't a TLP? Close it down obviously.
Anything else?
Mark
