Hi dev@,

I was recently encouraged to look at the nutch-webapp [0] repository after
a number of years. It hasn't been touched in 3 years and no official
release artifact(s) have been released since we spun it out of the core
Nutch codebase [1]. In addition, a growing collection of Dependabot PR's
[2] and security alerts [3] exist. I know that the WebApp is feature
incomplete. Although we've made it easier to consume via the Nutch
Dockerfile [4] this tends to result in users being confused as to the
maturity as they quickly experience runtime/operational issues and need to
seek assistance/guidance.

I would therefore like to open a VOTE to retire the nutch-webapp repository
[0]. The VOTE will be open for at least 72 hours.

[ ] +1 retire the nutch-webapp repository
[ ] +/-0 retire the nutch-webapp repository
[ ] -1 DO NOT retire the nutch-webapp repository (please explain your VOTE)

Thanks in advance for anyone who VOTE's.

P.S. Here's my +1

[0] https://github.com/apache/nutch-webapp
[1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2886
[2] https://github.com/apache/nutch-webapp/pulls
[3] https://github.com/apache/nutch-webapp/security/dependabot
[4] https://github.com/apache/nutch/blob/master/docker/Dockerfile#L87-L102
