This will obviously be subject to a certain amount of user configuration-setting, but the system should email people friendly reminders:

“General lack of activity” — be careful as we don’t want to be spammy, but certainly the odd (or at least first one or two) “What’s up, why haven’t you been applying?” email is fine.

Oh, the plan would be basically to just send out an email if a user has 2 weeks of inactivity, then not again. I also won't implement this until #51 is complete and I can add email preferences as a setting (and then offer a fast-unsubscribe link as well... I don't want users to have to log in to get me to stop emailing them!)
