The Apache Attic

The Apache Attic was created in November 2008 to provide process and solutions to make it clear when an Apache project has reached its end of life. Specifically to be:

“responsible for the oversight of projects which otherwise would not have oversight; and be it further … is not authorized to actively develop and release the projects under its oversight”

It is intended to:

Be non-impacting to users
Provide restricted oversight for these codebases
Provide oversight for active user lists with no Project Management Committee (PMC)

It is not intended to:

Rebuild community
Make bugfixes
Make releases

Getting into the Attic

There are two expected mechanisms by which a project may enter the Attic. Either the managing Project Management Committee (PMC) decides it would like to move the project, or The Apache Software Foundation’s board dissolves the PMC and chooses to move the project.

In either case, the following may be useful: Template Board Resolution.
When should a project move to the Attic?

Projects whose PMC are unable to muster 3 votes for a release, who have no active committers or are unable to fulfill their reporting duties to the board are all good candidates for the Attic.
Process of moving into the Attic

This is defined in the separate process document.
Process of leaving the Attic again

Options are:

Forking the project - we'll link to any forks which have been created so please let us know
Restarting the community in the Apache Incubator
Recreating a PMC for the project
Transfering to an existing PMC

A receiving PMC must be willing to assume all responsibilities that come with running a project : maintain code, answer questions, fix bugs, publish releases etc.
If the Board does not object, PMC Attic will transfer the project’s assets (code-base, TLP website, maven group-id etc) to the receiving PMC.
After the transfer the receiving PMC will report to the Board about the project’s activities, and publish project releases in the PMC’s dist area.
Contacting the Attic PMC

The Attic is managed by a Project Management Committee (PMC). Discussions are found on the general@ mailing list and you are welcome to subscribe.
Retired Incubator Projects

The Apache Incubator project is the entry path into The Apache Software Foundation for projects and codebases wishing to become part of the Foundation’s efforts. Not all projects ‘graduate’ out of the Incubator and are instead retired. Those retired projects may be found on the Incubator’s Project page.

Apache阁楼是2008年11月创建的，目的是提供过程和解决方案，以便在Apache项目达到生命尽头时清楚地表明这一点。具体如下：
“负责监督本来没有监督权的项目；而且是进一步的。。。未被授权在其监督下积极开发和发布项目”
其目的是：
不影响用户
对这些代码库提供有限的监督
在没有项目管理委员会（PMC）的情况下监督活跃用户名单
其目的不是：
重建社区
修正错误
发布
进阁楼
项目进入阁楼有两种预期机制。管理项目管理委员会（PMC）决定要移动项目，或者Apache软件基金会的董事会解散PMC并选择移动项目。
在这两种情况下，以下可能有用：模板板分辨率。
一个项目应该什么时候搬到阁楼上去？
如果项目管理咨询公司无法获得3票，没有活跃的提交人，或无法履行向董事会报告的职责，这些项目都是阁楼的好候选人。
搬进阁楼的过程
这在单独的流程文档中定义。
再次离开阁楼的过程
选项包括：
分叉项目-我们将链接到任何已创建的分叉，请让我们知道
在Apache孵化器中重新启动社区
为项目重新创建PMC
转移到现有的PMC
接收PMC必须愿意承担运行项目所带来的所有责任：维护代码、回答问题、修复bug、发布版本等。
如果委员会不反对，PMC Attic将把项目的资产（代码库、TLP网站、maven组id等）转移给接收PMC。
移交后，接收到的项目管理咨询公司将向董事会报告项目活动，并在项目管理咨询公司的分布区域发布项目发布。
联系阁楼项目管理顾问
阁楼由项目管理委员会（PMC）管理。讨论可在general@邮件列表中找到，欢迎您订阅。
退休孵化器项目
Apache孵化器项目是Apache软件基金会（Apache Software Foundation）希望成为基金会工作一部分的项目和代码库的入门途径。并不是所有的项目都从孵化器中“毕业”，而是退休。那些退休的项目可以在孵化器的项目页面上找到。
