The normal process for deprecating a plugin is by calling a vote.
Reasons are often:
- moved to another team/project/etc.
- overruled by another plugin
- has become part of another plugin (or Maven itself)
 
Some options for the site-documentation:
- add a .htaccess file and redirect to the new site
- add some bold deprecation-text on the index.html
 
But this seems to be a special case. The site is kind of useless, but I think 
the plugin might be interesting.
Maybe just delete the site, but leave the project in the sandbox.

Your mail triggered me to think about this. Especially in this case where it 
looks like a dummy plugin with no use.

Does anyone who's been here for a while know if there is such a process? Should 
we just vote and then (hopefully) go ahead?

Is there a process of deleting abandoned sandbox sites to reduce noise
