Murano project is not active as there is no response from their maintainers/PTL on ML[1] or to the vmt on security issue[2]. Also their gate is broken[3], while fixing the python 3.11 job we found that their functional/tempest jobs are broken. The last change merged on master was 6 months ago which is translation bot change.

Emerging and inactive projects
As a community we want to be inclusive for new projects under the
OpenStack umbrella. This, however, isn't that easy as each project needs
to fit many requirements (see new-projects-requirements
for more details) and that
can be sometimes hard for new projects.
In order to grow a new project team within OpenStack, we want to accept them into the OpenStack space when they have code that's functional enough to indicate what it is they want to accomplish, but at the same time we need to be clear to OpenStack consumers that such a project is not yet ready to be run in production due to factors such as the code repository not structured according to OpenStack standards, functionality is missing, etc.
It may also happen for already existing official OpenStack projects that they may not be so active anymore, they may not be able to do release on time or have broken testing or not merge incoming patches for long time.
In order to solve the above problems, there is
Emerging technology
state for such new projects and
inactive
state for existing projects that are not so active
anymore. TC will keep working on such projects to make them consistent
with OpenStack or try to transition inactive projects to active. TC
might not be able to solve these problems but we will try to keep eyes
on such projects and give our best effort to make them active.
Emerging technology
is a state which can be set for new
OpenStack projects. The state of inactive
can be set for
existing projects that aren't well maintained due to lack of maintainers
or active contribution.
Entry criteria
If a new project wants to become an official OpenStack project, but
it does not fit all requirements for new official projects (see new-projects-requirements
for
details) TC can consider to add such project to the OpenStack projects
as Emerging technology
.
For existing projects which became inactive due to lack of
maintainers and are not able to do the mandatory activities, such as
release, fix testing, review incoming code, etc., TC can consider
marking such projects as inactive
, try to solve the problem
if we can but keep it in the official OpenStack projects list instead of
deprecating and removing it immediately (see dropping-projects
for more
details).
Exit criteria
A project can exit the Emerging technology
or
inactive
state by either becoming an active OpenStack
project or by becoming a retired project.
A project is considered active when it meets all the requirements to
be an OpenStack official project, which are described in new-projects-requirements
. In
particular, there must be a sufficient number of active maintainers to
perform all the basic activities of OpenStack official projects.
A project may be retired by the TC if it does not complete the work required to become an active project within the timeline defined below.
Timeline
A new project must become an active OpenStack project before the
third OpenStack coordinated release after the project has entered
Emerging Technology
status. For example, a project became
OpenStack Emerging technology
project in Yoga cycle then
timeline for them is BB (after two releases, Zed and AA). In BB
development cycle such project should meet all requirements for a new
project listed in new-projects-requirements
to stay as an official
OpenStack project. If project is not able to become an official
OpenStack project within that timeframe, TC will discuss with the team
if more time is required for the project to meet the new-projects-requirements
or
will retire the project.
An existing project should be reinstated as an active OpenStack
project before the release milestone-2 of the cycle they entered the
inactive
state to become active
again and to
be released in that cycle. In the case where an inactive
project does not become active
before the release
milestone-2, there will be no release of it proposed by the release team
in that cycle. In such a case, it is up to the project itself to get CI
working and propose a release if that is needed. It may be required in
some cases for example, when there will be security fixes or
compatibility fixes merged in the project. In the case where an
inactive
project still does not become active
during the next cycle after the cycle they entered the
inactive
state, the TC will discuss with the team if
project will be retired before the release milestone-2 of the cycle. In
such a case there will be no new releases of that project.
Tracking
At the end of each cycle, TC will evaluate this list of the
Emerging technology
and inactive
projects and
based on the timeline checks if any of them can become active or if it
maybe should be retired. Any addition or removal of projects in this
list will require a formal-vote.
