Proposal to mark etcd-io/zetc as public archive

[jmhbnz]

Sub issue under etcd-io/etcd#16367.

This etcd sub-project has been inactive for a significant period, with the last meaningful activity occurring in 2019. Given the lack of recent contributions, I propose marking this repository as a public archive.

This action would clearly communicate to the community that the project is no longer actively maintained.

Reasoning:

1. Inactivity: The repository has not seen any substantial activity, such as code commits or issue resolutions, for the past four years.

2. Clarity: Marking the repository as a public archive would provide clarity to users and potential contributors. It indicates that the project is in a dormant state and that any forks or contributions would likely not be integrated.

3. Resource Allocation: Keeping inactive repositories in the active organization may create confusion and require unnecessary resource allocation responding to issues etc.

Next steps

I kindly request @etcd-io/maintainers-etcd and previous main subproject contributors @heyitsanthony and @gyuho review the proposal and please provide feedback.

Thanks for the input team. I'm hopeful we can have a majority decision from @etcd-io/maintainers-etcd.

In the event we don't get a majority I propose we invoke lazy consensus as outlined in our Governance doc here:

the issue will be resolved by a supermajority of the maintainers with a fallback on lazy consensus after three business weeks inactive voting period and as long as two maintainers are on board.

Based on three weeks from issue creation that would be 13th October to be able to proceed with the archival.

@etcd-io/maintainers-etcd many thanks for your attention on this, we now have maintainer majority (4/6) voting to proceed with no votes against.

Can one of you please do the honors to update this repository to archived in github so we can close this off? 🙏🏻
