TripleO is a project under<br>
OpenStack governance. Any project under the governance *must* follow 4<br>
opens [1]. At the same time, if the project happens to be maintained<br>
by a single vendor, it doesn't make it any special from any other<br>
project that has healthy contribution diversity. So community<br>
consensus can't be neglected in my opinion.<br>
<br>
While I fully understand that the main contributor of the project is<br>
quitting it and resuming to maintain only some stable branches that<br>
are currently in an Extended Maintenance, until they will be EOLed, I<br>
personally don't think that dropping content/removing later branches<br>
or releases does follow 4 opens. Even though we might not be aware of<br>
contributors willing to step in in further maintenance of the project,<br>
it doesn't mean they won't show up in some time when the word will be<br>
spread.<br>
<br>
As Ghanshyam said, the situation we've found ourselves in will be<br>
discussed during the next TC meeting and TC will return back with a<br>
decision on how to proceed with the project deprecation process.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That works for me, thank you. Just let someone on the TripleO side know if you'd like any certain patches done for the governance repo, or if the TC will handle it.<br></div></div><br>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature">-- James Slagle<br>--</div></div>
