Hi,

IMHO, we tried last year to impulse some energy here, with a release, 
with more discussions than in the previous 8 years, but I think the 
conclusion is now pretty clear : still some interest, still some 
production users, but not enough to run an Apache-hosted community.
So moving to the Attic makes sense.
