> 
> in preparation of a new sling starter release, I discovered that we
> currently have 10 archetypes [1] and 1 archetype-parent github projects.
> 
> only one archetype is currently actively maintained, the sling-project-
> archetype [2]. the others, although partially mentioned on our
> documentation page [3], are not actively touched since 2015/2018, except
> sling-content-package-archetype [4] which was added in 2020 but also did
> not get any love since them.
> 
> having archetypes to start a new project is great - but starting a new
> project with dependencies that are more than 5 years old and often using
> outdated patterns and tooling is very counterproductive.
> 
> so, also after as short discussion with robert, I propose to:
> 
> 1. mark all archetype repos from [1] (including sling-archetype-parent,
> but excluding sling-project-archetype) as deprecated and do not touch them
> any longer
> 2. replace the documentation page [3] with a link to the only remaining
> archetype [2]

>   [ ] +1 Approve the release
>   [ ]  0 Don't care
>   [ ] -1 Don't release, because ...
