Hi Matt and all,
Just to clarify: the language in 6.2 does not relate to "the conditions
[...] for remaining a committer", but to the conditions for remaining an
*active* committer. Inactive committers are still committers, and (as I
understand it) can become active simply by reappearing with an intention to
do work. This isn't the first time this has caused confusion, so I wonder
whether we need to clarify it?
Note that, as far as I can tell, the charter does not provide anymeans for
someone actually to lose committer status. I have no opinion on whether
this ought to change.
Cheers,
Neil

Me too.

I think this is covered by the "approved in advance" text.
My query relates to section 4.9 - I think rather than "ceases to make
codebase contributions for an extended period" it might be better to refer
to the conditions laid out in section 6 for remaining a committer, which
includes the detail of also contributing to the mailing lists.
Anyway, if that can't be tweaked, +1 regardless.
