thanks for your feedback.
I'll search for the link in the dashbord.

Philip,

I believe you have to go to your project dashboard and start the retirement process from there. I did this about 3 years ago for some ICE committers and there's just a little link for it. Let me know if you can't find it, but that will start the official retirement process.

Philip and Christoph,

Thanks for the additional information you shared about your experiences, but there is nothing I can do with it. I recommend you reach out to the EMO if you want to explore these issues further.

Dear PMC,

good, please retire Christoph Läubrich.
Just for clarification/further considerations:

* Creating a new release and enabling an API baseline for the next
version is on our agenda.
* Reasonable change request were ignored by Christoph, see for example [1].
* It's correct, that we once made a mistake by generating getter/setter
code and not keeping the original copyright header [2]. We learned from
this case. But it seems that Christoph handles the issue with the
copyright headers not with the same priority when it comes to his own
changes. Have a look at two examples [3]. If you need more cases, please
let me know.
* A release is overdue, that's correct. Migrating from Java 8 to 11 was
a main issue for the last time, which has been recently addressed and
solved.
* Lablicate has not sued Christoph for using ChemClipse source code. He
also knows it. This is again a smoke candle.

As Christoph is actively working on his proprietary solution, based on
ChemClipse, I would be really interested to know if he has created a
private fork of the Eclipse ChemClipse and SWTChart projects.


Best,
Philip
