Removing inactive members from the pkg-perl Alioth group
Hi,
we were discussing removing inactive members of the pkg-perl group on
Alioth on IRC to get a clearer picture on the number of active members
and to improve security slightly. Currently the group includes old
*-guest accounts of people who have since become a DD, retired DDs, and
members that have not been active since a long time (or never at all).
I would like to start with *-guest accounts that have not committed to
the SVN repository for at least a year [1] (that includes accounts that
have become a member of the group in the last year, but never committed
during that term). These are currently 43 accounts.
Our current idea is to
(a) send a first mail that accounts will be removed from the group in
four weeks,
(b) send a reminder two weeks later,
(c) remove the accounts.
Everybody that responds to the queries will stay a member of the group
on Alioth; people that were removed can of course request to join the
group again, we just would like to get rid of nominal members.
If there are no objections, I would like to start the process later this
week. Maybe we can even re-activate a few members this way ;-)
Regards,
Ansgar
[1] I did not check the Git commit logs, but I believe there is no
*-guest account there that is not active in the SVN as well.
