[technology-pmc] RE: Cleaning out inactive committers

["Ali Kheirolomoom" <AKheirolomoom@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Title: Bjorn Freeman

Hello Bjorn,

 

Please go ahead and “un-committerize” the following individuals:

 

-          Akheirolomoom

-          Bbrady

 

Kevin (kparker) is the ALF webmaster and has been updating the ALF site frequently (almost weekly).  Your inactivity data for Kevin is not accurate.  I am also going to resign as “ALF Project Lead” and have Brian Carroll take over this responsibility.  I will be working with Brian to ensure a smooth transition.  Needless to say, I will continue to be heavily involved with the ALF initiative at the strategy and direction level but Brian will assume the daily execution activities. 

 

Brian and I will follow up separately with a formal request.

 

Thank you,

Ali.

Subject: Cleaning out inactive committers

 

Ali,
As part of the fall house cleaning, I noticed that three of the committers on the ALF project appear to be inactive:
    http://dash.eclipse.org/dash/commits/web-app/active-committers.cgi?project=technology.alf
    akheirolomoom
    bbrady
    kparker
Note that being an inactive Committer does not mean that the people are inactive on the project - I know, for example, that Kevin is very active in promoting ALF around the world. As a committer, however, has not checked any code or web pages into CVS in over nine months.

The Technology Charter requires that Committers stay active in the project:
    http://www.eclipse.org/technology/technology-charter.html
"A Committer that ... does not participate actively, or has been inactive for an extended period may have his or her commit status removed by the PMC."

We ask that either:

• You explain why these people should continue to be committers in spite of appearing inactive, or
• You tell us to "un-committerize" them. Committers that are removed can, of course, be reinstated when they resume their active work on the project.

Thank you.
