I get the impression that SPDX killed it: https://spdx.org/ While there are still a couple of references to DOAP defined fields in the SPDX spec, I suspect your overall impression that the DOAP format itself is dead is correct. So yeah, skipping implementing those URLs for the migration makes sense to me. If anyone complains, we can always add them back later (I doubt anyone will complain, though).

[Distutils] DOAP on PyPI
Hey all! I was looking at porting more things over to Warehouse (PyPI 2.0) and one of the things left on the TODO list was the DOAP URLs. I'm not sure why they were added originally but I'm not entirely sure they add any value to the service. Looking at the past day's worth of traffic they got ~90k total hits, but almost all of those 90k hits came from a single IP address using wget. Looking at the traffic patterns for the accesses from that IP/client it appears to be someone using wget as a simple mirroring client for PyPI and thus they are picking up the DOAP URLs because they are linked from the the PyPI pages for those projects. Further more it appears interest in DOAP as a whole isn't very high, the GitHub repository [1] has had 10 commits ever, 2 of which are importing the history of the project 2 years ago, 2 of which are merge commits for two different pull requests, and the remaining 6 come from the two pull requests. The mailing list [2] has had no traffic since 2012. So I would like to remove this functionality from PyPI by not implementing it in Warehouse. It appears to be practically unused and the DOAP project itself seems to have stalled or died. Is there anyone depending on DOAP? Would anyone be upset if this went away?
