Hi Wayne,
Is it possible to keep the LocationTech brand around?
I absolutely want to see the projects be able to keep the
org.locationtech.* package names and groupIds. Doing that for the
projects once they are rebranded from LocationTech to Eclipse will
be a little awkward...
As a way to split the difference, could we rebadge the projects
as "Eclipse LocationTech" <projectName>?
Cheers,
Jim

In part, we're merging the LocationTech forge into
the Eclipse Forge because the LocationTech working group (which
the forge was originally created to support) no longer exists.
There is also the practical matter that the main forge has
developed faster than we've been able to maintain the
LocationTech forge and that the project teams will get better
service by leveraging the main forge.
Technical namespaces do not need to be changed. Projects
can continue to use org.locationtech.*
If you have concerns about specific aspects of what we're
doing, please raise them on the bug reports (the team that
supports our infrastructure, for example, doesn't monitor this
list). For issues regarding repo.locationtech.org,
weigh in on Bug 528040.

I believe this is just combining infrastructure
to reduce costs.
I am kind of curious about repo.locationtech.org -->
repo.eclipse.org as we had
defined some specific workflows around the use of
classifiers to mark jars that had been modified for
eclipse release (often a subset of the maven central jar
with some IP removed).
Thank you Wayne for this reminder and
details about issues to track.
Sorry in case I've missed it, can you tell us
something about the story behind? The question I'm
having in my mind: Is it not allowed to use locationtech.org in
sourcecode anymore?
Many thanks for clarification

Greetings Eclipse LocationTech PMC.
The Eclipse Foundation Webmaster and Project
Teams have set December 2/2019 as the date to
complete merging the LocationTech Forge into the
Eclipse Forge. We're tracking this work on Bug
528037.
For most committers, this should not be
disruptive. The existing source code repositories
on GitHub will not be impacted.
The other piece that will impact some of you is
the migration of repo.locationtech.org.
Please use Bug
528040 to provide input into this process
and otherwise monitor progress.
Note that the open source projects will all be
rebranded from "LocationTech *" to "Eclipse *"
(see Bug
553103).
There are some other activities (all described
in "blocker"s on Bug
528037) that you can use to provide input
and feedback, and otherwise monitor progress.
Thanks,
Wayne
