Bugzilla Bug 135927

William has been working on maintaining www-servers/tomcat and a number of
other packages in our experimental overlays over the past several months. We
would like to bring him on board the Java team to continue this work, as well
as help out with other Java packages.

The candidate has completed both quizes, and I'll be doing the final review
tomorrow sometime.

So far so good, I seem to be a dev? In secret though, would be great if I could
get an annoucement. Also I seem to be nameless on the java project page, and
mia on developer list page. No rush, just to mention it "officially". Otherwise
seem to be all set. Thanks, and off to commit and squash bugs.

The java project page you can modify as you have commit access now. I think the
developer page is manually synced so you need to poke someone from infra.

Roll-call updated and new-dev announcement sent twice! :) Let's hope it doesn't
get eaten this time.

William,

it is the decision of the devrel team that your Gentoo access be suspended for
15 days.
We hope this will allow you to step back, review your actions, stress out,
recharge your
batteries and refocus on what's important for you on Gentoo.

We've reached this decision after you've ignored the warning in
http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-nfp/msg_719a7281c357a6f1e5f15dea219ccb03.xml
and kept
replying to the thread in a tone not according to the CoC.
Following the procedures set on the policy [1] and after receiving a request by
antarus
to moderate your posts on the -nfp mailing list, musikc with NeddySeagoon's
agreement
asked infra to implement the moderation. You've then sent a mail that was not
approved
by the list moderators and later decided to subscribe with a new email address
[2] to
circumvent the moderation of your posts.
This suspension was agreed upon by calchan, fox2mike, jmbsvicetto, rane,
tsunam, and
musikc. fmccor also agreed with the decision.

 [1] - http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/coc.xml#doc_chap3
       "The proctors will attempt to resolve the problem by talking to involved
parties,
     potentially issuing warnings if appropriate." "If the problem repeats
itself, there
     are various options open to the proctors, including temporary or permanent
suspension
     of a person's ability to post to mailing lists"

infra,

please process this bug accordingly

processed some time ago, just didn't update the bug till now.

From a mail from him "and my request for retirement denied or ignored." so
reopening for retirement.

William's request wasn't ignored. We (undertakers) have even mailed him with an
explanation why he won't be processed right away.

We decided to wait two weeks with processing his retirement until his
suspension period ends. We've given him that time to cool off and think it over
again instead of rushing it and allowing him to make the decision in the heat
of the moment (he wrote his resignation seconds after he was informed about
being suspended).

If he still wishes to leave Gentoo after two weeks, we will comply with that. 

For now, let's all calm down and just wait a bit.

Thanks Łukasz. This really should more or less be a semi official policy with 
retirements (two weeks to a month), if not already to prevent rash decisions
and wasted infra/retirement efforts.

Infra, please process Williams retirement.

> Infra, please process Williams retirement.

This may seem confusing in light of comment #8. Wltjr emailed us (devrel and
some others) on the 5th stating to retire him, he quit. 
Rane made his comment on the 7th. 
Wltjr emailed us (devrel and some others) again on the 8th stating that he
would not come back and to retire him. He stated that he had thought it over
for a while and slept on the decision, he still will not be coming back. He
also made a good point about how prolonging his retirement will further delay
finding new package maintainers, ultimately hurting everyone.

Please proceed with the normal retirement process. If wltjr wishes to come back
some time in the future he can talk to us about doing so, for now he wishes to
go.

Infra-processed for cvs/dev/lists/bugs/ldap.
Sorry about the delay, was due to RL and having to also rewrite some LDAP
scripts.

planet, forums: your turn.

Forums done.

planet done
