Over the years we've identified a few specific roles at Mozilla. These
are described in the Roles and Responsibilities document
(http://www.mozilla.org/about/roles.html). I'd like to update this
document in general to reflect the Mozilla project today. That's a task
that will take some work and you'll see from me about this in the coming
months.
For now, I'm proposing we add a new role or status. I'd like to be able
to recognize people who have built something at Mozilla and then passed
on their authority. This will give us a way to describe people after
it is no longer accurate to say "I'm the module owner" or community
leader or other activities. I'm thinking we'd attach a year to it.
So someone would be something like "[Name of module or similar activity]
Module Owner Emeritus, 2012.", The year would be the date the person
passed on their leadership to someone else. I'm inclined start with the
present, and work our way backwards in time.
We cold make an Emeritus Roll, where we list people, including a link to
the materials that show *how* and when they passed on their authority.
This would allow others to learn, and allow us to point to the ones that
seem the best learning examples as reference material.
Thoughts?
Mitchell
