Re: Thoughts on removing access to the Python teams repositories to inactive members ?

Show all headers | View raw

Hello,

thanks for raising this!

I support this proposal but would suggest not to post a list of names on the
public mailing list, as some people may not feel comfortable
being publicly listed as inactive.

Maybe we could contact them directly (for example with an
automated email) and set an access expiration date via the gitlab
API.

Best regards

Anton
