Re: [TC][Monasca] Proposal to mark Monasca as an inactive project

26 Dec 2023

      Hi there!

Changes to any OpenStack project should be submitted through a Gerrit. You
can check how to setup a Gerrit account and make your first patch here:
https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/common/setup-gerrit.html

Regarding maintainer status - normal process for that would be having a
bunch of contributions to the project and nominate yourself as a Project
Team Leader (PTL) during bi-yearly elections [1].

However, since the project in topic is not properly maintained at the
moment and we can't wait for next elections without marking project as
inactive - process might different for such cases.

I think bare minimum would be to get CI of monasca passing and you can
propose patches for that right away. If there won't be any reaction to
these patches from the PTL and active core reviewers in a timely manner, it
should be possible to extend the core reviewers team.

However, I would wait for a TC answer of how they see a potential solution
for the project if you're interested about helping out with it's
maintenance. Overall I believe that we as a community interested in keeping
projects alive and happy to see new ppl stepping up:)

Hi,
Just a quick reminder about Monasca project. It seems that there is still
no any volunteer who would like to work on e.g. fixes for the project's
gate.
Milestone 2 of 2024.1 cycle is just around the corner - it's *Jan 8th* so
if there is anyone interested in keeping Monasca alive and have it released
in *2024.1* then You should start fixing main issues asap.
Just for the record, current stats of the project:

Hello OpenStackers,
...
...
I wanted to close the loop on this -- Monasca was marked as an inactive
...
project by the Technical Committee. This means if there is no volunteer
to
...
help restore CI to functionality, bring it up to date for the release,
and
...
take ownership of it as PTL before the M-2 milestone, it will become
...
eligible for full retirement by the TC.
...
...
Thank you to Slawek for doing the work to get the statistics to enable
this
...
decision.

Hi,

I just proposed patch [1] to mark Monasca as inactive project. It was

discussed during last TC meeting on 03.10.2023. Reasons for that are
...
...
described in the commit message of the [1] but I will also put all of
it
...
...
here:
...
...
...
...
previous cycle there wasn't almost any contributions to that project
and
...
...
...
...
most active contributors in last 180 days were Elod Illes and Dr. Jens
...
...
...
...
Harbott who were fixing some Zuul configuration issues only.
...
...
...

Here are detailed statistics about Monasca projects:

...
...
...
...
*there will be no new release of Monasca in the 2024.1 cycle and TC*
...
...
...
...
*will discuss if project should be retired.*
...
...
...
...
So if You are interested in keeping Monasca alive and active, please
reach
...
...
out to the TC to discuss that ASAP. Thx in advance.
