Hi Greg, I've focused on updating the content of the current site to make it a little more friendly to new comers who are currently presented with dead links. So here is a patch to the current static website. It only affects index.html. Created by: $ svn diff index.html >

Hi Gary, Untill we can get live back it might be a good idea tput some more basic info on the landing page and remove the dead links etc. How is the website (bloodhound.apache.org) hosted / updated / where does the code live? Happy to take on maintenance if that helps would just need some help

Hi, It is certainly good to see some interest in getting things going again. I should probably have said something sooner but Greg did summarise the situation pretty well. >From the point of view of where code is submitted, I totally understand the >desire to use git rather than subversion

I fully agree with Daniel and the top ten priorities he suggested. I haven't looked at Gary's code either (assuming this is the repo at https://github.com/apache/bloodhound-core), this is the first thing I will do, and I will share my feedback as soon as I can. Nikolay Tsanov +1-819-635-7198 On

I just wanted to say thank you to Greg and Shane for providing all the detailed information so far. It feels like we're not quite dead (I mean in the Attic) yet, but will be soon if we don't do something. In the interests of maintaining momentum here ,which seems to be gathering, I'll keep

There has been near-zero commit activity for many years. The mailing list is empty. There are a few people "around", but inactive. Note that a move to the Attic will not cause any problems with the 0.8 release. That will always be available for download. The Attic is simply a marker that future

Hi Shane, Could you please elaborate on the material metrics for "real engagement and energy" that would rescue Bloodhound from the attic? I have been using version 0.8 for my personal needs since 2015 and the lack of active contributions on my end is, among other reasons, due to the fact that it
