Hi,
  I think this idea is good security hygiene. A 3+ years list would help in
a way because it can bring up corner cases or problems wirh the filtering
method, such as:

The first item doesn't match the second there.

If the intent is to remove people from the Python team due to not doing
anything with the Python team for (say) 3 years you'll need to look for
that info elsewhere.

That list is sorted by any salsa activity.  For example it says my last
activity was 6 Jan 2026, which it was for the Debian project.

My last Python activity was February 2025.

Now  on that list for 3+ years means they've done nothing on Salsa anywhere
so definitely they've not done anything in the Python project, so its a
good start but won't meet the full goal.
