Sad news for Cortex, with most of the maintainer moving on to Mimir, I fear it's pretty much dead in the water.

We tried to address this question on the Q&A blog post: https://grafana.com/blog/2022/03/30/qa-with-our-ceo-about-gr...

It doesn't have to mean the end for Cortex, but others will have to step up to lead the project. We've tried to put other maintainers in place to kick start this.

I was going to ask what the migration path was from Cortex to Mimir, but I see you've documented that at https://grafana.com/docs/mimir/latest/migration-guide/migrat... . Thanks for the work you've done to make this easy.

This video also shows a live migration from Cortex to Mimir (running in Kubernetes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaGxTcJmzBw&ab_channel=Grafa...

If anything, this makes me less interested in moving from Thanos.
