> Brainstorming here. The Bylaws say that 10 days after receiving an emeritus 
> request, the member should become emeritus unless the request is withdrawn.
> Members should be able to file an emeritus request as easy as a proxy: go to 
> a web page, log in with member credentials, fill the form, send it. That same 
> page should also remember that an emeritus request was filed and give the 
> member the ability to withdraw the request (when the member returns to the 
> page, it looks up to see if there is already a pending emeritus request). So 
> the request should be put into a well-defined file, say 
> documents/emeritus-requests-received. When this is filed, a message should be 
> sent to secretary which will show up in the to-do secretary mail, and copied 
> to the member. There should be an attachment of the emeritus request that can 
> be verified as valid by secretary.
> The subject of the email to secretary should make it clear that this email 
> was generated by the whimsy emeritus tool, e.g. subject: Your emeritus 
> request has been received
> When the 10 day period is over, secretary can process the request by clicking 
> on the email. When the file, e.g. clr-emeritus.txt is clicked, the Categorize 
> menu will include the (o) Emeritus button which when clicked, displays a form 
> with: Member ID, Member Name, Date fields and (File) button. When the (File) 
> button is pressed, the svn commands to move the file from 
> documents/emeritus-requests-received to documents/emeritus; the update of the 
> members.txt to move the member to emeritus section and update the active 
> count, and email to the member with information how to be reinstated etc. 
> etc. 
> This same tool should also allow for processing of submitted signed 
> (holographic or gpg) emeritus requests.
