Description Lars Vogel CLA 2016-08-15 06:06:48 EDT
It's time to clean up our active committer list and nominate some people to be Committer Alumni for eclipse.platform.ui: https://www.eclipse.org/projects/committers-alumni.php

I'll list the committer user names here, and send out a note to the committers' emails from the Git commit history. I will also ask Webmaster if I can get their latest email.

Hi,

Platform UI is working on our 4.7 planning, and we are taking the opportunity to clear out committers who have been inactive for extended periods of time.

No committer who is active or interested in remaining active should lose commit access to any source code they currently have write access to.  If you wish to continue access to Platform UI, Runtime, and User Assistance, please comment on bug XXXXX  before August 31th.

Hi, thanks for contacting me about this, Lars.

I would like to keep my commit rights to the stated projects in comment 0.

Don't read into this comment too much, I'm still staying in Japan for now. ;)

You can commit from Japan too, amazing how this think called "Internet" works these days. ;-)
