+Retirement Plan for Plugins
+
+ [[1]] Propose a vote on the dev-list to retire a plugin. The vote should be
+ open for the standard 72 hours to allow people to voice their opinions. Send
a
+ cc to the users-list. Standard Apache voting rules apply. Only PMC votes are
+ binding.
+
+ The vote must contain one or more options on how to retire the plugin. There
+ are multiple scenarios available. Here are a couple that have been suggested:
+
+ * Move to retired area in svn
+
+ * Move to mojo.codehaus.org, apache-extras.org or another forge
+
+ []
+
+ [[1]] Make one final release of the plugin before it is retired. This allows
+ us to make a clean break. The final release must remove the
+ "Source Repository" report from the site, since the SCM URLs will be changed
+ when the plugin is retired. A prominent notice must be placed on the front
+ page of the plugin's site, informing that the plugin is retired. If the
plugin
+ is moved elsewhere, that should also be posted on the plugin's site. The
+ person who wants to retire a plugin is the one who does the final release.
+
+ [[1]] Announce the fact that the plugin has been retired/moved on the
+ annou...@m.a.o and us...@m.a.o mailing lists. Explain to people what they
+ should do if they would like to help with the continued development of the
+ plugin.
