Re: [lyo-dev] Fwd: Retiring Apache Wink project ?

Thank you, Michael,

I now come to think that your option is the most amicable. We indeed had little issues with Wink so far and I built it from source myself as well, so I don’t see a problem forking it if really needed. Thank you!

    A third option is to continue to use Wink unmaintained and as-is until we're ready for a new JAX-RS stack.     We've only ever had one issue which required a fix on the Wink side.  In the unlikely event that another problem arises we can fork the source
     (or proactively fork it now) and maintain the fork for Lyo only - we've built Wink from source before and can do it again.
    
    Lyo does have some Wink-specific code which would have to be re-written if a new JAX-RS implementation is selected.
    
    
    Just some thoughts.

    Dear Lyo users & developers,
    
    
    Many parts of the Lyo project depend on Apache Wink (both the server and the client part). Chair of the Apache Wink, Luciano Resende (CC) suggests that unless the community members decide to step up, the project retirement will be put forward at the Apache
     board meeting this month.
    
    
    In my opinion, we should help maintaining the project until the clear migration path off both the server and client part of Wink is clear, even though until recently Lyo mostly depended on the old 1.2.1 release of Wink (1.4.0 was released in 2013). If
     nobody is ready to help, I would suggest considering to accelerate on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=513854

    Based on the lack of activity, the Board has asked the Apache Wink PMC
    if it is time to retire the project. Those PMC members that responded
    [1] indicated that they agreed it was time for retirement.
    
    This e-mail is to make the wider community aware of the PMC's
    intentions to retire the project and to provide an opportunity for
    community members who would prefer to see the project continue to step
    up and get more involved (e.g. work on open issues, work towards a
    release, etc.)
    
    It is currently expected that the Apache Board will consider a
    resolution to retire the Apache Wink project at the April 2017 board
    meeting.
