Heron will continue to live long.
It has it's own place in the stream processing world among other competing
technologies.The ever increasing data has stretched competitions to the limits
of breaking.
In addition:
In production at the creating company and others around the world.Best open
source alternative to Google Dataflow, from the recent talks.
Higher freedom to customizations, makes it attractive for innovation.
27 continuous monthly meetups.
Slack is active.Mailing lists are active.
455 meetup members and counting.40 linkedin group members and counting.
All of these, just by a few bunch of us.
It is too early for 'retirement' talk, IMHO.
Let's focus on, making it to TLP.
Taking one task or part of it at a time.
Thank you./Sree

The community size and activity look steady rather than dwindling. The

keep going well.
As for 'retirement' I think that would be premature
