[I previously sent this from another email account, but it seems to be lost. I am sending this on behalf of the GCC Steering Committee.]
In 2012 RMS was added to the GCC Steering Committee web page based on his role in the GNU Project, though his role as a member of the Steering Committee has been ambiguous and he was not a member of the Steering Committee when EGCS became GCC[1]. We no longer feel that this listing serves the best interests of the GCC developer and user community. Therefore, we are removing him from the page. GCC supports the principles of Free Software and has remained aligned with the GNU Project since EGCS became GCC, but effectively has continued to operate as an autonomous project. The GCC Steering Committee is committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disabilities, neurodiversity, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion, or similar personal characteristics. - The GCC Steering Committee [1] https://static.lwn.net/1999/0429/a/gcc.html
