I'm a little curious. I'm a committer on a few projects and am on the
Cocoon PMC. This is the first time I've every heard of a proposal for
people to automatically lose their commit privileges. Although, I
haven't found any rules anywhere that says you can't do it, it seems a
bit odd to me.
Second, I didn't find anything that discusses just how Maven
distinguishes between committers and PMC members. I know it is up to
each community to decide. I'm just used to all committers also being
able to be on the PMC if they want to. So how does it work here?

Hi,
I'd like to propose two things:
1) Establish a list of emeritus committers.
2) Remove inter-project commit restrictions
The first does not depend on the second. But I think the second does
depend on the first. I would like to put each to a separate vote once
all the pros and cons have been gathered from this discussion. I'd
expect each vote to operate as requiring 2/3rds of the PMC to vote
(12), with a majority of +1's within those votes for it to pass.
Other votes would be welcome with reasons as advisory, but not binding.
* Emeritus committers
Someone can request to be made emeritus at any time they want
(usually because they have moved on to other things, or just don't
have the time). They will be listed as past members of the team, but
have no karma. An emeritus committer can request commit access again
at any time they feel they can be active, and a vote will be held to
accept them or not. To start with, anyone who hasn't committed in 12
months will be made automatically emeritus. PMC members will not be
made emeritus (unless they chose to stand down from the PMC).
I'm just curious, what problem does establishing a list of emeritus
committers solve?
Regards,
Alan
