11 months ago I think the initiative for Alumni actually came from @wusyong @jbolda and @lorenzolewis and @zackarychapple have chimed in as well.
A couple of earlier chats for reference: https://discord.com/channels/616186924390023171/1072934517226082356 https://discord.com/channels/616186924390023171/1146650713271828540
Role Transition: Becoming an Alumni
Contributor roles are granted for as long as the person wishes to engage with the project. However, over time an active community member may choose to step away from Tauri to work on other things. A member's circumstances can and will change, and we want to help prevent any feelings of guilt in the event one can no longer contribute.
The Alumni role is an acknowledgment for those previously in contributor roles but who are no longer involved. On assuming Alumni status, members exchange their previous roles, with its privileges and duties, for the Alumni role and its benefits.
For the community's security, Alumnus access to code and administrative functions are revoked. However, if the circumstances change, we welcome Alumni back, to resume their role as a member of the Working Group.
Rejoining the project as a contributor (L1 or above) will automatically revoke your Alumni status.
