Future New Underground Membership Criteria

Recently I did what I was hesitant to do for years, I purged all forum Underground (UG) members who had not been active within a certain period.

We need to change the UG membership criteria (from mod voting) and create a new criteria for UG membership which is not based on "voting" because mods are often busy and not inclined to vote on every member unless asked to vote. This is not really fair to member or moderators. So, I have a new TODO to make entry into the forum Underground based automatic based on a combination of various metrics, TBD.

I have not created the metrics yet, but it will be a combination of things like:

Number of Posts
Number of Thanks from Other Users
Number of Thanks Given to Other Users
Time a Member
Recent Activity
Infractions
Bug Hunter Team Badge

Basically, when a member has a certain number of posts, thanks and time as a member, no active mod infractions, and have reported a verified bug in the forums at least once, they will be automatically promoted to UG member with extra permissions, edit privileges, and other benefits, TBD.

When a UG member is inactive for a certain number of months, they will be automatically demoted back to the "Registered Users" group.

If anyone (including Ravinder, hint hint) would like to suggest the criteria for this automatic promotion to the UG, please reply with your suggested criteria.

Group membership limit

On Solaris, a user is limited to being a member of a maximum of 16 groups. Could someone tell me where this limit comes from, i.e. is it NIS, or Solaris, or NFS that is imposing this limit? What is the work-around to remove this limitation?

rpccp_add_member

add member(1m)															    add member(1m)

NAME

       add member - Adds a member to a group in a name service entry; if the specified entry does not exist, creates the entry

SYNOPSIS

       rpccp add member   group-entry-name -m member [-s syntax]

OPTIONS

       Declares the name of a member to be added to the specified group entry (required).

       You  can  add only one member at a time.  Indicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional). The only value for this option is the dce
       name syntax, which is the default name syntax. Until an alternative name syntax becomes available, specifying the -s option is unnecessary.

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the name of the target group.	For an entry in the local cell, you can omit the cell name  and  specify  only	the  cell-relative
       name.

DESCRIPTION

       The  add  member  command adds a member to a group in a name service entry.  The name of the entry containing the group and the name of the
       new group member are required. The entry of a group may have been created previously (by either the add entry or add  member  command).	If
       the specified entry does not exist, the add member command tries to create the entry.

   Privilege Required
       You need both read permission and write permission to the CDS object entry (the target group entry).  If the entry does not exist, you also
       need insert permission to the parent directory.

NOTE

       This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

EXAMPLES

       The following commands run RPCCP and add the member /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_3	to  the  group	/.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group:  $  rpccp
       rpccp> add member   > -m /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_3   >  /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group
