How about a simple monthly "ping" mail Aaron would send on each 1st day of the month. Next month a small summary would be in the beginning of the next mail saying "everybody responded" or "xxx is missing". The missing people without an excuse would get a warning/reminder mail to anser within the next month and one month later we could them move to the Fellows list.

Simple but should keep us informed about the true resources we have.

This sounds like a good idea to me. We will begin in September. Anyone who doesn't respond in two months will be marked as inactive with all accounts disabled

I'm pretty sure I'd be eliminated by my own criteria... but I've been questioning my contribution level anyway. ;-)

I like this idea too, BUT it doesn't help with people who'll respond but not actually do anything. (me, for example, or my favourite Archer, Simo). It'd be a good start though, and maybe the reminder e-mails would help the rest of us get our asses in gear.

Yeah, I'll make sure that people actually do something each month as well. Just responding is not enough

I could just bump it once more and fix the pending dependency bug but I don't want to do the splitting and maintenance for a longer time.
