[Question] Why are you shutting this proj down?

As indicated on the README, "we don't have the resources to maintain this project anymore", neither on the hosting part (old OS, VM, infra, ...) nor on the code part (old framework, code, dependencies, ...).
If you think this project should go on, you're welcome to contact me to find a way to keep it running by offering a way to host it (we should definitely upgrade the OS/Java) and maintain its code (we should fix the OAuth part and upgrade the frameworks, but it's not that easy as OWSI core is not maintained anymore).
In my opinion, a new project restarted from scratch (on a new stack) would be a better solution.
I also have sympathies to this project and I use it since it was announced!
I was sad to see that it is "moving to the attic" as we say at ASF (Apache).
But I agree that there are newer ways and tools which could be used as replacements - Dependabot, Scala Steward, Renovate, ...
