[Labs-announce] [action required] We are removing inactive projects.

[Andrew Bogott]

Update:

There are still 30 projects that remain unclaimed on 
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Purge_2016.

I've emailed the admins of each of these projects directly.  If I don't 
hear anything I will start to shut down instances on Thursday.


Many thanks to the vast majority of admins who provided me with prompt 
and useful feedback about project preservation and cleanup!
