The current mapping is documented here:

I'll see if we can get the one for the new constitution put somewhere
as well.
I'm sad tos ee the Emeritus Role as an explicit role go away. The original
constitution intended this as a form of respect to show appreciation for
someone's past efforts. Now it seems it will simply display as 'expired'.
It's not really going away. The Emeritus Role applies to any ex-CC. The
database stores expired CC grants, so having it show that at some point
in the future is not a problem. I am not sure than needs to be
displayed within Auth, but there is no technical reason it couldn't be.
For the record, poll shows 7 EC's but any expired-CC grant, of which
there are several on poll, should be listed as an EC at this point, so
poll is a bit misleading in that regard.
Note: in the current constitution, someone can resign from being a core
contributor and therefor move into the realm of Contributor Emeritus.
How is this handled in the new Auth App?
There is one role per person, per collective. You can become a CC
without being a C first, so an expiring grant for a CC in that case
makes you an EC, as described above. The Constitution is not clear if
you should revert to a C. A case where you are a C, then a CC, then have
your grant expire may result in you reverting back to a C, but I need to
verify that.
