Description
In the Project Committee meeting on July 13th, @sbwalker alerted everyone to the news that the .NET Foundation Board approved starting the Project Archival Process at the June Board Meeting.
".NET Foundation Project Membership is predicated upon a project maintaining its eligibility status, abiding by the code of conduct, and demonstrating continuous contributions via its public activity metrics (ie. code commits to their repository within the past 18 months). If a project fails to meet any of these requirements, the project maintainer will be notified so that they can return the project to good standing. If the project is still unable to meet its obligations, it will be archived. Archival means that the project will no longer be represented as an official Member Project and will no longer be eligible to receive Member Project benefits."
The committee members will start the work on defining what this means for projects that fall into this status and how it will work.
Feel free to leave any feedback or comments here if you are unable to attend the next meeting.
Idea on guidelines:
Projects that don't have any commits for 18 months
Archival process steps
The next meeting is scheduled for August 10th.
