I don't know if it good to say it here but several sub-repos are actually nearly archived.. For example https://github.com/apache/flink-connector-pulsar/ , it never undate since last year, and we actually use https://github.com/streamnative/flink-connector-pulsar/ as a usable fork, or even a central repo. For another example flink training is dead also. https://github.com/apache/flink-training/pulls for about 2 years. nobody review prs, nobody track latest flink 2.x versions... Sigh. Hope things get well but...
