[Syntribos] Does anyone still use this?
The Security SIG has recently been looking into updating several sites/documentation and one part we discussed the last couple meetings was the security tools listings[0]. One of the projects listed there, Syntribos, doesn't appear to have much activity[1] outside of zuul/python/docs maintenance and the idea of retiring the project was mentioned. However, there does seem to be an occasional bug-fix submitted, so we are sending this email out to see if anyone is still utilizing Syntribos. If so, please either respond here, reach out to us in the #openstack-security irc channel, or fill out the section in the Security SIG Agenda etherpad[2]. Thanks!

It's been ~10 months now with no response, with there still being no real involvement with the syntribos project since then and the last merged commit was Dec 2018, we will be moving forward with retiring the project from OpenStack.

I agree, its usefulness seems to have come to an end and nobody has really been maintaining the software as far as I can tell. Thanks for closing it down gracefully. If someone comes along later and wants to reconstitute and continue the project, all they need is a few git revert commands. -- Jeremy Stanley
