Hi,

I'm new to Apache Ratis. I am starting to use Ratis in some Apache Pulsar 
experiments. I'm one of the Apache Pulsar PMC members and an active committer 
in the project. There are more details about the plans in my blog, 
https://codingthestreams.com/pulsar/2022/10/24/rearchitecting-pulsar-part-2.html#experimenting-with-apache-ratis-and-the-sharding-model
 . 

I noticed that Apache Ratis LogService has been moved to 
https://github.com/apache/ratis-hadoop-projects/tree/main/ratis-logservice as 
part of https://github.com/apache/ratis/pull/595 / 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RATIS-1512 . 
The rationale seems to be that "hadoop related components" are moved. However, 
there's very little dependencies to Hadoop libraries in LogService. It looks 
like the only dependencies are ArchiveHdfsLogReader and ArchiveHdfsLogWriter 
classes. 

Are there plans to continue to actively maintain LogService?
The website https://ratis.apache.org/ lists LogService on the main page and 
there's no information on https://ratis.apache.org/logservice/ page about 
possible deprecation or moving of the project to 
https://github.com/apache/ratis-hadoop-projects/ . 

Would it make sense to move LogService back to apache/ratis git repository? 
Categorizing it as a "hadoop related component" seems wrong to me.

Best Regards,

Lari Hotari
