Summary

I think an ambitious project of rewriting this module to Angular 8 is prudent. I did not see any contributions on the Zend project and wasn't too keen on learning the old AngularJS of this project. I think a rewrite to Angular 8 would position this project with future proofing and make it palatable for new development.

I am ok with the old AngularJS, but I completely agree with the rewrite. I can setup the project in a couple of days. I am a bit overwhelmed right now, but I can surely prepare it in a few weeks. @michalbundyra, we can discuss details.

I've argued that it should be written in React due to:

size of ecosystem
longevity of the project

That said, I'm not sure we should start such a rewrite anytime soon, as the steering committee still needs to decide if the MVC-based project will continue to get features, or go into maintenance mode.
