The EMO is using this issue to track the progress of a project termination review.
We are scheduling this termination review based on the PMC request: https://www.eclipse.org/lists/science-pmc/msg00710.html
> I would like to nominate XACC for termination ([https://projects.eclipse.org/<wbr>projects/science.xacc](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/science.xacc)). Three reasons:
>
> 1\. Neither Greg Watson nor I are active committers, and it does not have a project lead.
>
> 2\. There has been no activity in its GitHub repo since July 2023. [https://github.com/<wbr>eclipse-xacc/xacc/graphs/<wbr>contributors?all=1](https://github.com/eclipse-xacc/xacc/graphs/contributors?all=1)
>
> 3\. We, the PMC, have not heard from anyone working on or using this project in years.
