Once the formal warning is issued, it can be processed by the clutch [1] and also show the elapsed time. In 3 months, 6 months, 9 months mentors and IPMC can decide whether to remove the warning or not. After one year, if there is no significant change and the goals are not archived, IPMC can easily decide in favor of retirement because they know the history of the issue. At the same time, every three months until retirement PPMC will be notified that they are still under the warning (I think this is somewhat happening even now, as I've seen from Jukka's replies to the board reports), so they will have reasonable time to take action. Of course, we don't need a process like this in the case of the PPMC unanimously agree for retirement. Best Regards, Nandana [1] - http://incubator.apache.org/clutch.html
