Sorry it's not going to happen. We can't just go ahead asking all the projects for a list of active/inactive people every couple of months or so. This does not scale, and we do not want to become annoying to other developers. Like I said, if a project is completely dead someone will notice. If you have found such a project, and you talked to them, and they refuce to fix it, then taking this to the Council is the right way to solve this problem. If the project has a few inactive people then the team or the lead can sort this out themselves. - -- Regards, Markos Chandras - Gentoo Linux Developer http://dev.gentoo.org/~hwoarang -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJSXa0HXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQzNTVDNDczOUYzRjJEMTRGNDRGMzU2RkMw OUJGNEY1NEMyQkE3RjNDAAoJEAm/T1TCun88cFkQAMaU6/+PUhp8M7qFhCAiq2qG FEm+hwqZO27YAFdRH7vuTJRUYSFr6Iq5WRw+A2qXOuRt6jGahGWTBr23u+40/Jeq MqgUVFaTY7EFfPWea6KXicqJgZEWUMCx31H2T6Y6bgq0M8jsRjDwTIMo5JkVBFX0 I8LKJslYadRAW+BWci7W/AYBaVC45kebAdktv8a1diwzvC+5S5vl8/Rcw4mWXLFA jmQlXZOVk/hlyLVSU2x7xo9IcNradkEMRIWh87IQzr6UGO6sWoR1wtA2Kux/lWIw nOjyDk9ARaYq2WDxaR899Lt9yvUCJ04gi3SqMpimaOEYoaMc26RHM7q3awxtR6LW YcDmphFKNRAxES7j6e0tPt78wKff/FDckAz8Q2W0mSJ7Y+erJ2T6Eb4KBKjiGa7Q 9iA8vJy5PfaF6/VINwEN3CWZQDS2I5pu5Bwwo/PS7SSR/dlYYKiriDYxEGt9fJeM YlXr+jF50Gd64b4zGoY16bw5XKgnops7uo+pu/1EcO3DYyvtujZmpSVNIb5n/H82 0kuXn2kkL5U4Gq2WouVGrV8Rjh9fGE3vUzdVvyCHdMFtdjB/RLu0exz520rmGK/+ 4p6WgR7MQYDoIlTWPRpluZ2WAVfnY/zEg7tE8YeVqBpN2NY5uWd50SEUVY6rZjIW hZTyWWyKqElh1I6Y8vZD =ueym -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
