As a follow-up to [1], we recently introduced automation to better and more
efficiently manage GNOME Foundation membership applications (new
memberships, renewals, emeritus).

There's no substantial change on how you should be requesting membership,
an existing membership renewal or emeritus status, other than making sure
you quote (via @username, in the issue description) an existing GNOME
module maintainer or Foundation member who can vouch for your membership to
be approved and the process expedited.

This particular automation ignores the title of the issue unless you're
applying for the emeritus status, in that case it looks for the string
'emeritus' (case insensitive) in the issue title itself. That's the only
current requirement.

Automation will also collect a list of approved members during the last
month and mail [2] accordingly, this as a replacement of the former
announcement we were used to send on foundation-list (mailman).

For any doubt, concern, question, please reach out to us via [2].

Thanks!
