(Update) I didn't notice this last week, here are some updates from me. I had talked with this time several times in the past several weeks, gave suggestions similar to John's, 1. Recommend them to open source their fork on their own(declaring it is ambari's fork). Maintaining a fork doesn't require ASF's official approval, they just need to notify the foundation, and be clear about the original source codes belonging to ASF. And should not use ambari and Apache ambari as their own brands/logos when they try to do (2). 2. Try to build a community, and see whether more people are willing to join. After all, ambari went into attic because there are not enough PMC members working on it. 3. Once, even a small community, is built, potential mentors and people from Hadoop community may feel interested to involve again. 4. The team proposing this, doesn't have any experience in working in ASF or ASF's TLP/Incubating projects. I have suggested they do this step by step slowly. Reactivating an attic'ed community needs time, and may or may not work in reality.
