+1 option #4. Based on Justin's fact-finding, these "extra" IPMC members are not the source of the IPMC's problem. Let's put the conversation about removing IPMC members to bed so that we can focus on more promising causes and cures. Best, Myrle On Fri, Mar 8, 2019 at 12:33 AM Justin Mclean

I feel the real issue may be not the number of inactive IPMCs, but the number of active IPMCs. It might be helpful to make sure each project has enough active IPMCs. >From this point of view, the issue with many inactive IPMCs is that it seems like a project has enough IPMCs so there is no urgent

Hi All, +1 for #4 I think that we should focus on what is the underlying reason. I suggest starting a new thread to point for such purpose. We need to address the problem for both newcomers and long-standing members. For example, I personally think that it is not fluid at some points how

ntors are committers: if someone starts contributing in this community, they are to be recognized and invited to a mentor (committer) in this project; if they contribute more for the community consistently, they are to be invited to a IPMC member. In smaller IPMC, IPMC members focus more on helping/gui

+1 for #4 I think IPMC members not subscribed to the private list is only an issue for mentors. So at the risk of adding "yet another rule", I'd vote for #4 and look into *requiring* mentors to subscribe to the incubator private list and their mentee podlings' private lists. Craig > On Mar

I don't think that the number of inactive IPMC members is a factor in anything. They are, by definition, inactive. So I would vote for the no-op action (#4, I think). On Thu, Mar 7, 2019 at 3:39 PM Roman Shaposhnik wrote: > On Thu, Mar 7, 2019 at 3:33 PM Justin Mclean > wrote: > > > > Hi, >
