+## Taverna Project Retired
+
+> tl;dr: The Taverna code base is **no longer maintained** 
+> and is provided here for archival purposes.
+
+From 2014 till 2020 this code base was maintained by the 
+[Apache Incubator](https://incubator.apache.org/) project _Apache Taverna (incubating)_
+(see [web archive](https://web.archive.org/web/20200312133332/https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/)
+and [podling status](https://incubator.apache.org/projects/taverna.html)).
+
+In 2020 the Taverna community 
+[voted](https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r559e0dd047103414fbf48a6ce1bac2e17e67504c546300f2751c067c%40%3Cdev.taverna.apache.org%3E)
+to **retire** Taverna as a project and withdraw the code base from the Apache Software Foundation. 
+
+This code base remains available under the Apache License 2.0 
+(see _License_ below), but is now simply called 
+_Taverna_ rather than ~~Apache Taverna (incubating)~~.
+
+While the code base is no longer actively maintained, 
+Pull Requests are welcome to the 
+[GitHub organization taverna](http://github.com/taverna/), 
+which may infrequently be considered by remaining 
+volunteer caretakers.
+
