Just some quick search

- I do not see him at our "whoweare" page.

- I do not see him in the list of active committers, members or
emeritus members of the ASF.

- (As he was a committer, his ICLA should be in the records. I have
not looked there.)

Searching through mailing list archives
1) E.g. one of release announcements for mod_jk was sent by him:
https://tomcat.markmail.org/thread/sx4arghwi5c2bbpb

2) I see the following commit to Jakarta web site
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1059704

The commit removed the following text from
jakarta/site/xdocs/site/whoweare.xml

Hmm.

Looking at "whoweare" there are quite a few differences compared to the
official records. I'll go through and do a full check.

Glenn is an emeritus member of the ASF.

Yes, there is an ICLA on file.

If you search for his Apache ID you get a lot more messages. The most
recent I found was late 2005.

He was actively involved in Tomcat (and other projects) back when Tomcat
was part of Jakarta.

Glenn requested to go emeritus from the Tomcat project in 2009.

That his name is missing from the who we are page seems like an
oversight. I'll get that fixed.
