Thanks Tison and Yun for sharing your opinions. @Tison, Keep both a potential out-of-date table and a link to the up-to-date list sounds good to me. We can also add a notice about the page being potentially out-of-date.
@Yun, - I'm not sure about using someone's github avatar *by default*. I think we should at least get permission from that person, which IMO makes little difference than asking that person to update the website. - Adding a reminder in the invitation letter sounds good. However, I'm not sure whether we have such a place holding the template of an invitation letter. It seems to me most PMC members would just randomly pick a previous invitation letter from the mailing list archive and replace the name. - Adding a notice on the website definitely makes sense. We can also link to the up-to-date list in that notice.
