Hi,I think in the last few years I was the only maintainer of networking-l2gw.The project is still used and there are bugs and fixes for it. It is not as active as core projects, but not totally dead.The new namespace would be x/networking-l2gw (and x/networking-l2gw-tempest-plugin) I suppose, am I right?
Right, you can continue the development under any namespace in opendev other than 'openstack/', we have documented the process in TC document also[1] Also if you get more maintainers then you can re-apply to be under OpenStack governance as per the new application criteria which is documented in this section[2]. And as Andreas mentioned, once we have the new location of repos then we can update the README file also, please ping me or any TC members which have the right to edit the retired repo. Also, we can update the OpenStack projects which have code dependencies on networking-l2gw like networking-midonet and networking-old to point to new location of repo. We might need to do these for few other retired repo also which we are clearing now - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/tc-retirement-cleanup Thanks for your response and for taking care of forking the new repo.

Hi,
Development of networking-l2gw continues after its retirement from TC governance. We have open pending patches and released it for Ussuri. I hope the creation of the new repository happens before the retirement patch is merged and README refers to the new repository so that existing users are not confused.
Sure, that should happen, so make it clear what's the new location is.
Does any coordination already happen, or does TC just want to retire it? The new repository creation can AFAIK happen directly, somebody from the l2gw team should propose that.
Looking at the changes that need to be done, here's my proposal: - create networking-l2gw in new namespace, see https://docs.opendev.org/opendev/infra-manual/latest/creators.html - Stop merging any changes to openstack/networking-l2gw - change repos that use it to use the new repo in their jobs - Close openstack/networking-l2gw, including abandoning of all open reviews
