That sounds like a plan then.  Laurence, are you picking that up?

Cheers,

Hi Chandan,

I think it's a good idea (we actually discussed it during the irc
meeting a few weeks back too).

One thing we could look at is archiving the projects instead of
deleting:

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/settings/#archiving-a-project

I think we take each project on a case by case, locate the
owner/maintainer and liaise with them to shut it down. I think this is
non controversial and we can get started on it without delay.

Cheers,
Laurence
