Anyone wish to add anything? Is the project dead and attic

I am stepping down as Chair of the C++ StdLib PMC.
So the question is: Does this project and community
elect a new Chair, or does it enter the Attic?

That's not true.

The ASF was asked to comment on the move of the project to the Attic.
The below is what was sent.

Just checking :)
Since being tasked as chair, I've seen no activity. There was
an email from Bill regarding 2 "outstanding" iCLAs, but the response
from one of the "committers" was less than optimistic.
That's it. No Emails on dev@ or private@, no code activities,
really no evidence at all of "renewed" interest/he

Looking over the lack of activity within this project, it's
obvious (at least to me), that maybe its day is done.
Should I call a vote to move C++ to the Attic? Or is there someone
who feels that the project should still exist *and* is willing
to stand as chair?

FWIW, The ASF supports git so if people think it would help,
all we'd need to do is ask #infra to move stdcxx to git.
The idea that ALv2 projects can't be added to FreeBSD ports is complete and
total hogwash. Pure FUD.

Your suggestion is that, somehow, one cannot push stdcxx as part

My response is that that suggestion is total hogwash.
As an ASF project? It's not going to happen.

Trivial fixes should just be fixed... the normal expectation is
that bug reports are for non-trivial bugs or for trivial (and
non-trivial) bugs reported from the outside.
If a committers sees a bug, just go ahead and fix it, and
document the fix in a commit log, changefile, etc ;)
On Sep 6, 2012,
Just a few points:
1. No single individual can "make a process more formal". If the
project itself wants more process, and to make it more formal,
then all is good. If a single committer decides on his/her
own to add process *which is not formally required by the
ASF* then committ

Major typo: It should read: They are NOT external adjuncts of corporate
projects.
Many projects have CTR on trunk and RTC (based on trunk revisions)
to branch. This works well.

what would we like to share?
I see:
o renewed discussion on health/viability of pmc
o increased development being done
o PMC expressing interest in moving to git
