Gentoo recruiting randomness

[robbat2]

As a recent random time-waster, I went and read all of the bugs in the "Recruitment" product of the Gentoo Bugzilla. In doing so, I found twelve developers (ebuild or other) that weren't listed in our LDAP or historical tracking at all. I added them back now, I have gentoo-core announcements from when several of them joined as well that I double-checked.

The "lost" developers

• pihta - bug 20756
• ct - bug 22211
• srcerer - bug 23184 (retire date approximate)
• fede2 - bug 25464
• vlaci - bug 31795
• teval - bug 36753
• mccabemt - bug 43029
• rip7 - bug 46353
• twk-b - bug 53723
• dj-submerge - bug 57051
• little_bob - bug 69742
• ruth - bug 70469

Other LDAP changes from my review:

• svyatogor - bug 20756 - updated join date for original docs work, he had commit rights two years before his previously stated join date
• archaelus - bug 30835 - data fixup
• apokorny - bug 70188 - add join date

Further plans:

There are 92 developers without join dates. We need to find join dates for them via BugZilla and CVS/SVN. Also audit all join dates for every other developer. Lastly, discover and capture retirement dates for every past developer.

Present statistics: 673 developers total. 247 active, 426 retired.
