It is on the agenda now, but we can postpone action if there is any doubts by next week. ....Roy On Jul 8, 2020, at 1:47 PM, Patricia Shanahan <p...@acm.org> wrote: There seems to be a developing consensus. Ultimately, we will need a resolution which would be better coming from the PMC rather than being imposed by the board. You may need more time to prepare it and confirm the consensus. If so, perhaps a very simple report saying something like Apache DRAT is not active and the PMC plans to offer a resolution next month? On 7/8/2020 10:15 AM, Chris Mattmann wrote: Thank you Roy. Yeah just DRAT would be fine. Appreciated and will await the outcome. Thanks, Chris From: "Roy T.

If that is the case I would request that should the project be spun down and committee terminated that the ASF would consider simply transferring the repo back to me under my GitHub where it originally came from. To my knowledge we never requested trademark or anything like that on it, so hopefully it’s not entangled in anything more than simple consideration there. Thank you for your consideration. Chris Hi Chris, Generally speaking, that's the default, since stopping further work on a project is equivalent to abandoning the mark, and we always allow people to fork Apache repos. I don't think anyone would mind as long as it isn't packaged as "Apache DRAT". DRAT is fine.
