I'm currently retiring a somewhat large portion of inactive devs. I
don't use solars script as it doesn't work correctly in some cases. This
has been discussed several times on #-infra together with the need for
checking bugzilla activity. I've fixed the bugzilla activity using a
slightly hackish php script that pulls activity directly from the
database for now but it should probably be cleaned up a bit. My biggest
problem really is checking cvs/svn activity right now because of the
aforementioned bug that more or less forces me to use 'cvs history'.

I'll file a bug or two with my requirements later today so it can be
handled in a more orderly fashion.

I don't really care about anything besides commits right now. Even for
ATs having only ro cvs access I should still be able to determine their
activity from bugs.g.o activity. Failing that I do talk to leads when in
doubt and always try to cc people on any retirement bugs I file so they
can object if needed.

We should be able to handle forums staff the same way I currently check
bugs activity. Only requires ro access to the database and a small
script but this would obviously have to be discussed with infra and
forum leads.
