the above text makes pains to distinguish between "committer" and "Council

those who haven't used their commit bit in >1.5 years to the emeritus list.

Were I to want such a thing, I would simply review and merge one of the
many languishing PRs. I have the power to add myself to this list without
asking for special exemptions to the general rule, merely a token bit of
effort on my part.
