Closing out the JIRAs as "Auto Closed" or "Closed due to Inactivity" seems
reasonable to me. For branch-1, we can be more aggressive. We should
probably do the same less aggressively for other branches too.

I would be -1 to declaring the branch dead just yet. There have been 7
commits to that branch this year. I know this isn't comparable to trunk or
branch-2, but it is not negligible either.

I propose we come up with a policy for deprecating past major release
branches. May be, something along the lines of - deprecate branch-x when
release x+3.0.0 goes GA?

[DISCUSS] branch-1

2015-05-08 Thread Allen Wittenauer

May we declare this branch dead and just close bugs (but not 
necessarily concepts, ideas, etc) with won’t fix?  I don’t think anyone has any 
intention of working on the 1.3 release, especially given that 1.2.1 was Aug 
2013 ….

I guess we need a PMC member to declare a vote or whatever….

I think it would be fine to "auto-close" most remaining branch-1 issues
even if the branch is still formally considered alive.  I don't expect us
to create a new 1.x release unless a security vulnerability or critical
bug forces it.  Closing all non-critical issues would match with the
reality that no one is actively developing for the branch, but there would
still be the option of filing new critical bugs if someone decides that
they want a new 1.x release.
