Subject: [oc] Spring cleaning: List of projects that seem to be dead anddon't have any files
Some the code is buried.

Just checking randomly, here is one.

Epp v1.9, it's not under CVS, but if you click on epp1.9 (between
overview and news), you will find it.


It might be worth checking the development status, and if it says
something like mature or completed, it might be working a little more
closer.


I think they should be e-mailed rather than simply deleted, especially
if it's at least beta/ready to be used level.

Hard Facts:
1) There isn't any source there, just the name of a core!

2) The author created it years ago

3) Even if it took years for the creation, it is not that hard to
create a new project (whenever they come back...)

4) Does anybody remember anything "they've signed up to and accessed
only once" from more than a year ago?

5) I didn't know there were so many empty projects, and I think they
give a wrong image of the real cores to visitors (think of somebody
accessing two old empty cores in a row, what will he/she think about
the rest?) and that affects the image of the opencores community.

I'd say:
a) Delete'em all
b) Add to the project creation policy something like: "Projects with
no sources for more than a year will be deleted."

Good job Guenter!

OK. Thanks.

I'll start the cleaning process.

I'm thinking what is the right way:
1) Just delete the project without any notifications to the maintainer

(fast
and simple)
2) Email notification, then wait period X days, then delete the
project
(slow and painful)

Hi,

for spring cleaning, here is a list of projects that do not have any
