If no one claims the repository within the 4 week notification period during which each of the alternate owners will receive a notification email every Sunday, the repository will be archived. An archived repository is one that has been moved to an alternate location and is no longer accessible to the users. The data has not been deleted but no further access can be made to it.

During this period, which also lasts 4 weeks, each alternate owner will receive an email each Sunday stating that the repository has been archived and how to claim it.

Here is what the archive period emails look like:

Alternate Owners: %REPO_OWNERS%
    Archive Date: %ARCHIVE_DATE%
    Removal Date: %REMOVAL_DATE%

This repository has been archived, which means that all access to the repository has been lost. If the repository is not claimed within 4 weeks, it will be deleted.

If you wish to claim this repository as the new owner, you must visit Apply to claim it.

https://apply.rice.edu/index.php?module=maintenance&page=claim_repository

Once the repository has been claimed by an active user, it will automatically be unarchived and removed from the deletion queue. Please note that guests, even if active, can not claim ownership of the repository.

You or one of the other alternate owners, if there are any, of the repository have 4 weeks to claim the repository before it is automatically deleted.

You will receive a message once a week during the 4 week period or until someone claims the repository.
