I don't like this because someone like me who has been working but can't voice it would have gotten drop.
It's why I ask people to fill the personal wiki page, at least with a link to a blog or anything showing what you do.
If we have to verify any people work as first membership of any other, we have to find something.
As a member of the membership team, I now it's very difficult to have let only a small idea of the work somebody do.
I know of a friend of me that have booth from more than ten years now for suse/openSUSE and his membership was refused because this was not internet visible... so, chuck, you are not alone :-(
We need to make differences between membership and collaborating. You could be a volunteer, collaborative person, or leader with no membership, right? What does make you a member? It goes a little bit further. It is some kind of spiritual commitment to openSUSE Project guiding principles https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Guiding_principles It could be said, evolving from collaborative acts to the renewed commitment to defend the openSUSE Projects by clarifying or promoting facts ( wide interpretation ). Why is so important to dismiss people from membership? Do you think having an alias for your irc or mail is a strong motivation to keep attached to openSUSE Project? Dismissing people will bring new volunteers, collaborators, leaders? Do we need to release a space on membership database? I am sure there are plenty people who works with no recognition or rewards. There is another face on the coin, people who need rewards to act. They are not always on one side or another. The side they move depends on the tasks they perform and the resources they bring on. How we will be able to identify what we need and what they need, when and where?
