members.html is maintained by the members themselves.  Not all members =
know to do that or simply don't add their information.  At one point in =
the recent past it was discussed having members.html derive from that =
but since it contains more information I believe it was decided to leave =
it alone. Instead, the committers page I referenced was moved from Jim's =
user site to the main ASF site at the link I posted.

committee-info.txt, from which whoweare.html gets its information, =
should contain an accurate and up-to-date list of all PMC members on the =
various projects at the ASF. However, it has gotten out of synch from =
time to time.

I believe the link I gave you derives from the ldap permissions that =
govern what people can get to in subversion.=20

ASF members can participate in any ASF project by subscribing to the =
mailing lists and taking part in the community and PMC. Their votes are =
not binding until the are officially part of the PMC.  This is also true =
of the incubator. However, unlike other projects, all a member has to do =
to become part of the incubator PMC is to request to be added.  So =
incubator votes cast by ASF members who aren't on the PMC are =
non-binding.
