The vote is now over and successful with 4 binding +1 and no -1 :

  * Francesco Chicchiriccò
  * Peter Hunsberger
  * Jörg Heinicke
  * Cédric Damioli

The PMC is now tasked to do what is needed to effectively retire 2.1/3.0.

As discussed before, it's now time for volunteers to step up to do 
whatever is needed to actively maintain a now-refocused Cocoon project 
(migration to Git, dependencies upgrades, ...).

Farewell, good old 2.1 :)

Regards,
Cédric

      Hi,<br>
      <br>
      Following and according to last weeks' discussions, it seems that
      the general consensus would be to retire 2.1 (too old to be
      maintained) and 3.0 (too alpha to be maintained), and keep 2.x
      around for now.<br>
      <br>
      If I try to summarize what have been said, refocusing on a single
      product would give the project a chance to 1) provide a clear
      upgrade path to existing 2.1 users and 2) gather renewed interest.<br>
      For the still many existing 2.1 users, this would give a clear
      signal that it's time to consider other options.<br>
      <br>
      It's now time to formally vote:<br>
      <br>
      [ ] +1 accept (retire and officially stop the maintenance of
      2.1/3.0 branches, only keeping 2.x)<br>
      [ ] -1 reject <span style="color:#1D1D1D" lang="EN-US">
