Process for restoring emeritus members

This was extracted (@ 2025-10-25 13:10) from a list of minutes which have been approved by the Board.

Please Note The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting. ASF Members may have access to a private draft of these still-unapproved minutes.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

 Proposed process: When an emeritus member wishes to rejoin the membership, he
 or she sends an email to members@ indicating this. The emeritus member is then
 added to the new member ballot at the next membership election.

 Things to work out:
 1. Where to we record the nomination (i.e. how do we make sure it is not
    forgotten)
 2. What do we put in the nomination statement

 @Phil: discuss on board-chat exact process involving email to
 secretary@ to request reinstatement
