REQUEST: Archive kubernetes-sigs/k8s-gsm-tools

Repository to archive

https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/k8s-gsm-tools

Repository and/or sig subproject owners that are approving this archival

@BenTheElder (repo root approval OWNER, SIG Testing Chair + TL)

When should this be done

whenever is convenient, following lazy consensus

Additional context for request

This project didn't quite ship to production, and since then we've adopted an ecosystem project "Kubernetes External Secrets" instead:

https://github.com/kubernetes/test-infra/blob/d16a6c88145bc62fafc1fa4bf6d571c46d64bc27/prow/prow_secrets.md#prow-secrets-management

With nobody actively developing it, and no usage in the Kubernetes project, we should archive it.

I'm going to forward this request to our mailinglist for lazy consensus, I think we should give some additional time given many folks are busy with KubeCon right now, I just didn't want to forget to file this.

Let's move forward after say, June 1st, if there are no objections before then.

Will also raise this in #sig-testing slack.

There is also the Kubernetes Secrets Store CSI Driver project that provides an alternate solution if you don't like Kubernetes External Secrets(KES).

https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/secrets-store-csi-driver

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/secrets-store-csi-driver-provider-gcp

On a sidenote, KES has been deprecated in favour of External Secrets Operator(a go rewrite of KES). I'll log a separate issue in k/k8s.io repo to track that migration as it will impact k8s-infra in the future.

[dims]

+1 from me.

[BenTheElder]

There's already a test-infra issue tracking that migration, the state of those projects is not a blocker for archiving this incomplete, inactive, and unused project though.

Thanks

Still only +1, this is ready to move forward. Will ping admins.
