Discussions started in fall 2011 about future plans concerning each one of the GMT sub-projects.
As far as I'm informed, the latest status is the following:
VIATRA2 - To be moved
Targeted project has to be contacted, to be managed by Daniel Varro (any more recent news?).
AMW - To be terminated
Relevant content has to be migrated into M2M-ATL before, to be managed by Marcos Didonet Del Fabro (docuware ready);
UMLX - To be terminated
Relevant content has to be migrated/merged into M2M/QVTd before, to be managed by Ed Willink (docuware ready);
Epsilon - Already moved to EMFT;
GEMS - To be terminated;
MOFScript - To be terminated;
OMCW - To be terminated;
So I guess we can plan an actual date for the review(s) as soon as we have more information from the VIATRA2 side.
It may be simpler from a process side to then move the concerned project's content and globally terminate GMT at the same time (e.g.; during the Modeling "clean-up" could be appropriate as said by Kenn).
Best regards,
Hugo

I assume that you mean figuratively removed. To literally remove
these projects from the list, the projects will need to be
terminated and archived.
Do you have a timeframe for the restructuring?
Note that termination or restructuring review documentation need not
be particularly complex or wordy documents; you need only describe
what needs to be done (e.g. identify code, bugs, CQs, etc.). If it
makes sense for the project and community, all this can be done with
a single review (or however many separate reviews make sense).
Let me know how I can help.

Hello,
Concerning the Modeling-GMT projects and sub-projects, they
could be removed from these lists as they will be terminated or
are moving to other projects (potentially taking the opportunity
to switch to Git at the same time).
Best regards,

Greetings Modeling PMC.
As you should hopefully already be aware, the Eclipse
Foundation has declared a shutdown date for CVS of
December 21/2012.
Several Modeling projects are still using CVS. The list of
projects, generated based on information provided in
project metadata via the developer portal, is available
via the project status page.
Note that this link shows a filtered view of Modeling
projects that have a CVS repository.
Can you please ensure that the projects listed on this
page have a plan for migration before the cut off date?
Also note that the status page includes a liveliness
indicator. Some of these projects may be candidates for
termination or consolidation.
Note yet some more that several projects currently have
SVN. We will be deprecating SVN in the near term; these
projects should start thinking about migrating soon.
