Hi,

The Apache Maven project consist of about 100 (sub)projects. Due to the small 
number of volunteers and the huge amount of code to maintain we're missing 
enough space to make real progress on all these projects, including our 
ambitious ideas for the next major version(s) of Maven itself.
To be able to gain more focus we need to criticize the current subprojects and 
decide if it is worth maintaining.

The Maven Runtime library has been released 3 times, the last time was May 2012 
for version 1.0-alpha-3. According to 
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.maven.shared/maven-runtime 
[https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.maven.shared/maven-runtime] this 
library is only used in 4 projects.
The main purpose of the library is reading the pom.properties or pom.xml from 
an artifact to get the version. This functionality works so the library can be 
considered finished.
See https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-runtime/ 
[https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-runtime/]

I therefore propose that we retire the maven-runtime.

I don't think it makes sense to do a final release. Instead we should update 
the documentation and the freeze the codebase.

The process for retiring a plugin is described here:
https://maven.apache.org/developers/retirement-plan-plugins.html

The vote is open for 72 hours.

[ ] +1 Yes, it's about time
[ ] -1 No, because...
