[PROPOSAL] replace sling committer list with link to apache phonebook
currently we maintain a list of all committers and PMC members in a CMS page on [1].
this page is currently outdated, some committers are missing (e.g. david bosschaert).
my proposal is to remove this manually maintained list and replace it with a link to the apache phonebook [2]
pro:
- no redundant data, no manual maintenance: phonebook is always based on the "true source"
- distinction between PMC members, chair and committers is clearly visible (for vote counting)
con:
- we lose some probably important information currently present on this page:
- organization (not maintained for all members)
- role
the page [1] contains also additional sections with emeritus members, thanks etc. - these sections would remain untouched.
WDYT?

i replaced the committers list with a link to the phonebook:
https://sling.apache.org/project-information/project-team.html
if required we can think about fetching more information from the phonebook, but this would need more effort.

We could directly leverage the JSON data behind the phonebook page. I
believe public_ldap_projects.json[0] for committers + pmc combined
with public_ldap_people.json[1] for names should do.

maybe we can use the homepage url in LDAP to maintain the organization (compare with https://people.apache.org/phonebook-about.html <https://people.apache.org/phonebook-about.html>). Unfortunately that is not yet exposed in the Apache Phonebook.

+1, DRY FTW!

Yes, good idea.
FWIW I just finished some "global" website changes to add the current
ASF events teaser to the left menu but I'm done now.
