Just one more thing on this one.
I think we should make this feature more visible, e.g. in the main whimsy page
under
Available To Committers
Rosters <https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/> including: PMCs
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committee/> | other committees
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/nonpmc/> | podlings
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/ppmc/> | groups
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/group/> | members
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/members> | committers
<https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committer/>
Or if we don't want it to be visible to public, at least add it to the
https://whimsy.apache.org/officers/ page.
So I made this patch but I'm not sure whether it will work. And if we even want
it to be public. [1]

>> ICLA lookup for notinavail
>> --------------------------
>>
>> Key: WHIMSY-228
>> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-228
>> Project: Whimsy
>> Issue Type: New Feature
>> Reporter: Sebb
>> Priority: Major
>>
>> From the mailing list [1]:
>> "I'd like to propose a new whimsy feature: ICLA lookup for notinavail
>> This would allow authorized users (those with read access to
>> foundation/officers/iclas.txt) to search iclas.txt for specific names, even
>> for notinavail (those found in unlisted-iclas).
>> This would be an extension of the current committers search
>> https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committer/ allowing to search iclas.txt for
>> notinavail members if the name was not found elsewhere.
>> This tool would be used by PMC members when inviting new committers. The PMC
>> would look at roster/committer to see if the proposed committer was already
>> a committer. If not, and the notinavail entry was found, the PMC could use
>> the email address in iclas.txt to invite the new committer to provide an
>> apache id and verify the email address.
>> I'm working on an update for
>> http://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html#new-committer-process that
>> will spell out how PMCs are supposed to deal with proposed committers that
>> already are committers or already have an ICLA on file. This feature would
>> be easier to use than asking the PMC member to access and search iclas.txt
>> manually.
