Description

In our build of Apache Polaris, we pull https://projects.apache.org/json/projects/polaris.json to automatically populate the generated Maven pom's `<developers>` and enrich it with the right roles ((P)PMC member, committer, mentor). (Gradle build script code here)

However, the people.json file is often not available (HTTP/404), in turn causing CI failures.

Sample CI failure

Would it be possible to bring the file back / have it consistently available?
