I'm not sure what I should be looking at at this point. --- Going to: https://reporter.apache.org/index_proposed.html And then scrolling to "Report template", I see: PMC changes (from committee-info.txt) I'd like to see the (from committee-info.txt) parenthetical removed. I also see "Currently 1 committers." --- Going to: https://reporter.apache.org/index.html I see "## PMC changes: " which I prefer over the proposed version. I also see "8 PMC members" mentioned twice. As well as "No new PMC members added in the last 3 months " mentioned twice. I also see "Currently 1 committers". --- Something I haven't seen mentioned yet, but please remove the "Report from the Apache Whimsy committee [Ross Gardler]" line as many people interpret that as being part of the template, and paste it immediately after the line in the agenda containing the same information. >> I'm working slowly on making the roster tool read/write so that it can >> be used instead of the Perl scripts and editing committee-info.txt >> directly.
