I hereby propose that the Core Libraries group withdraw sponsorship
of the Device I/O [1], Kona [2], Penrose [3], and Verona [4]
projects. These projects have been inactive for a long time:<br>
<br>
- Device I/O has been inactive since 2018.<br>
- Project Kona had some activity in 2015 but nothing since. <br>
- Project Penrose had some activity in 2012 but nothing since. <br>
- Project Verona defined the version-string scheme that integrated
into main line in 2015 for JDK 9 (JEP 223), its work is complete.<br>
<br>
These projects have only one group sponsor. A consequence of <span style="white-space: pre-wrap">withdrawing sponsorship </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap">is that these projects will be dissolved [5].
Votes are due by December 5, 2025, 23.59 UTC.
Only current </span>Core Libraries group members [6] are eligible to
vote on this motion. Votes must be cast in the open by replying to
this mailing list.<br>
<br>
For Lazy Consensus voting instructions, see [7].<br>
