Re: [incubation] How to stop being a committer

Hi Mickael,

Well, a committer that wants to step down can ask the project lead to do this.
But this does not answer the question of how to ""vote someone out" who doesn't want to drop his status voluntarily.”

I am luckily not in such a situation, but I think it is a valid question for which there should be an answer.

Regards,
Kai

Hi list,
Hi,
I have a pretty good understanding of the how and when to become a committer on an Eclipse project. However, I haven't found any information about how to stop being a committer. Is there any formal process for "retiring" from being a committer? And, more interestingly, is there a way for a project to "demote" an existing committer to being a contributor only? This question is not about the possible reasons for when you would want to do this but more about whether it is possible to "vote someone out" who doesn't want to drop his status voluntarily.
Usually, it happens simply by asking the project lead. Nothing more than a simple request is necessary.
Then the project lead can remove the committer via portal.eclipse.org > Eclipse Projects > Project Lead For > [project] > view > [manage] inactive committers on the project > [committer] > remove.
