Some kind of membership management is certainly a good idea; I'd suggest that it only be quasi-automatic, with automatically generated reminders or lists, but the actual removal of members done manually; perhaps publish a list of proposed removals so that people can check for those who are contributing but hard to contact. (ie "nah, I saw them submit a bugfix a couple of weeks ago...or they've been on IRC helping newbies....) It would be good if email addresses are preserved; perhaps registers of past & currently inactive members, to make re-activation easier? (full disclosure I have a personal interest in this: due to other commitments I'm not currently contributing and have been considering relinquishing membership, but would also like to maintain a connection and contribute again in the near future.) regards, Helen -- IRC: helen_au helen.south@opensuse.org helensouth.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
