I just noticed the change audit, e.g. at the end of:

https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committee/axis

It appears to derive the expected change date from the date of the
NOTICE plus 72 hours.

However that is hardly ever going to agree with the date in committee-info.txt.

The normal process is to wait for the 72hrs to expire before inviting
the person.
They then have to accept (and may need to get an account), and the PMC
chair has to actually update the CI file. That cannot generally happen
in a day.

It's only possible for the date to agree if a provisional invite is
sent and accepted before the 72 hours are up, and the PMC chair
updates CI as soon as the 72 hours are up.

However it might be useful to report if the NOTICE e-mail cannot be
found, or if the date is before the 72hour expiry. Or possibly if the
CI date is much later than the NOTICE mail (though this does happen
fairly often)
