While Apache Lucy has been an active project with maintenance releases for several years, the Project Management Committee (PMC) which governs the project within the Apache organization has not grown in that time. One of the indicators of the project's health is whether it attracts new committers and new leaders over time. Apache Lucy has not.
Besides, we only have three active PMC members which is the absolute minimum to vote on new releases. I've also been the only active committer for the last ~2 years.
Should we dissolve the PMC and move the project to the Attic? Should we continue on as we are?
I don't have the motivation to continue my work on a 0.7 release. Without active committers, I think it's clear that the PMC should eventually be dissolved. So it's mainly a question of when. Personally, I wouldn't mind to wait about 6 months, make a final bugfix release if any issues with the 0.6 branch come up, then move to the Attic at the end of 2018. OTOH, I don't expect any major issues, so we could move to the Attic right now, especially if you or Marvin want to step down earlier.
