Once a project is donated to CNCF, it is donated in full. You cannot withdraw. They would need to withdraw from the project, but they cannot withdraw the project itself.
I guess the answer may be that they can ask the CNCF to archive them, but the CNCF/Linux Foundation technically controls the domain and trademarks. So I guess they would need the CNCF to release those back to the project if they wanted to withdraw or move to another foundation. Interesting.
> Trademarks and domain names of archived projects are still hosted by the CNCF and the Linux Foundation
> The project is free continue development in its repositories, ideally with a goal to reactivate itself
