If have had some discussions in the PMC about this list. People have different views. The problem I see with the list is that it does not represent the currently active people. There are folks on this list that have not done anything for years, it is not bad, it is the nature of open source contribution. Per ASF bylaws, merit does not expire, so committership does not expire. Emeritus is actually a fuzzy term according to bylaws and people are reluctant to ask others “hey are you sure you should still be listed as committer ?" I need to look again at the emeritus status and see if we could make this list more “real”. thoughts welcome, > >> >> *Will STEVENS* >> Lead Developer >> >> *CloudOps* *| *Cloud Solutions Experts >> 420 rue Guy *|* Montreal *|* Quebec *|* H3J 1S6 >> w cloudops.com *|* tw @CloudOps_ >> >> On Wed, Feb 24, 2016 at 9:43 AM, Jan-Arve Nygård < >> jan.arve.nyg...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> Hi all, >>> >>> We now have a script to populate the project members list ( >>> http://cloudstack.apache.org/who.html) on the website based on Apache >>> Project Directory.
