Hello fellow APISIX devs,
I feel very sad that some key contributions onto the APISIX Java plugin
received close to zero attention.
CF https://github.com/apache/apisix-java-plugin-runner/pull/313
Undertaking this contribution I realized that:
- Original contributors left the project
- The build is broken on Java 21
- The GitHub CI is also broken
- Dependencies are 3 years outdated
- No commit for 11 months
- Interest of the community seems low (cf lack of input on structuring
contributions)
I am now convinced that if it continue this way, nothing will ever
happen regarding the aforementioned contribution I need!
So what shall we do about it?
Deprecate + terminate the Apisix JAVA plugin?
Overwize, with APISIX community support, I can try to help on the
maintenance burden of the APISIX java plugin. Would people here be ready
to support this?
Best regards,
Benoit TELLIER
