What's with the Apache Foundation being the literal farm where projects are sent to die? Over the years I've come to associate any of their project with "it's basically abandonware, avoid" which has also coloured my opinion of the Apache web server, which was very much alive at the time. In fact, these days even the Apache server project has gone silent and virtually dead to most [1], except for those that still run the classic LAMP stack.
So, why has the Apache Foundation basically become synonymous with final resting place for everything under their stewardship?
1: fun fact, Apache ran 50% of websites in 2009, by 2022 this share fell below 25%.
