Hey EMO,

The email addresses for PolarSys B612 (b612-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx) and PolarSys NG661 Designer (ng661designer-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx) are bogus. If I recall correctly, they worked at one point in the distant past (when we operated PolarSys as a separate forge), but references to these mailing lists should have been removed a long time ago. Where did you get these email addresses?

Thanks,

Wayne

All three projects appear to have been abandoned by their teams. Based on the (in)activity in the repositories and issue trackers, none of the projects appear to have successfully engaged their communities.

An argument can be made that Eclipse B612 project has produced an entirely stable font that appears to be included in some font registries. Our practice of keeping archived GitHub repositories for terminated projects around should provide the community with an anchor point (should one be needed).

+1 for all three from me. But, let's give the other members of the PMC an opportunity to weigh in.
