Hi,
What should we do with the Dodo and Finch skins? Right now they sit in
the platform as any other skin. However they're not in a working
state. I've just tried Finch and the home doesn't display nicely in it.
We have 2 options I can think of:
1) we leave old/non-working modules in platform (as they are now)
2) we move them to a retired location. In this case we could move them
to the contrib repo in retired/. This leaves the door open to anyone
interested to resurrect them (even if it's a bit hidden, but we could
make that more visible). The only small issue (maybe it's not one) is
that name "contrib". Another option would be to create an "attic" top
level project for retried projects.
I can also think of some plugins that could go there (alexa, adwords,
etc) - We'd need to verify that they don't work since otherwise they
probably don't need to be moved.
We could also define a rule to move stuff to the attic:
- the feature is not working anymore
- there's been no commit for one year
Obviously anyone interested in reviving the retired code could do so
and move it back to the platform at any time.
Any idea on this?
Thanks
-Vincent
