Sam Ruby commented on WHIMSY-116:
---------------------------------
Also, a member of a PPMC should be able to delete committers by double clicking
on the row of the committer. This UI is less than obvious, and is being
revisited.
> Update documentation to add new PMC member

> Key: WHIMSY-116
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-116
> Project: Whimsy
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Roster
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
>
> I tried to use Whimsy to add a new PMC member, but wasn't able to get it to
> work. I'm a PMC member and an ASF Member, and was performing this because our
> PMC chair was not immediately available (and also I wanted to learn the
> process).
> So, I followed the old procedure of updating committee-info.txt with SVN (is
> that still necessary with Whimsy? It's not clear.) and manually running the
> ldap scripts, as described on http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html
> However, that page seems out of date. It does not describe the correct way to
> do it with Whimsy, and the instructions for using the ldap scripts no longer
> work, because the scripts have been "disabled" with a message to use Whimsy.
> (FWIW, I ended up copying the scripts, and commenting out the "exit" line
> which disabled them. The scripts should probably not be disabled unless
> Whimsy works in all cases, and should probably remain available as a backup
> when Whimsy fails.)
> The purpose of this issue is to fix the outdated documentation at
> http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html (assuming Whimsy is working 100%) or to
> restore the currently documented functionality.
