Austin, Herbert,

All good with me.  Thanks for working on this.

   - Send email to all existing committers inviting them to
        * create an entry on the GHC Committers page, saying who they are, where
            they work, and what they work on in GHC
        * reply to you asking for continued commit permission
     Lacking such a reply, you can omit them.  In this way we'll get an up to date
     list.

  - Perhaps we should have a convention that no commits in a year means  you lose
     commit permission.  You can be reinstated by asking, but it means we don't have
     a list filled with ex-committers.
