[technology-pmc] Cleaning out inactive committers

Title: Bjorn Freeman
Grahame, Don,
As part of the fall house cleaning, I noticed that four of the committers on the OHF project appear to be inactive:
    http://dash.eclipse.org/dash/commits/web-app/active-committers.cgi?project=technology.ohf
    bbanfai
    darmbrust
    dford
    djorgenson
Note that being an inactive Committer does not mean that the people are inactive on the project but it does mean that the person has not checked any code or web pages into CVS in over N 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.
