+<h3>Inactive Committer or Reviewer Status</h3>
+
+<p>A WebKit Committer or Reviewer that has not been active in the project for
+over a year is considered inactive. Activity for this purpose is defined as
+landing at least one patch in the past year. Reviewers who have reviewed a
+patch in the past year will also be considered active.</p>
+
+<p>Inactive Committers can regain Active Committer status by landing (via the
+Commit Queue) a non-trivial patch and asking on webkit-reviewers for a return
+to Active status.</p>
+
+<p>Inactive Reviewers need to show that they are making an effort to get
+familiar with the changes that have happened in the project since they were
+last active by landing at least 3 non-trivial patches. Once they have landed
+the patches, they need to send an email requesting reactivation to
+webkit-reviewers. This request needs the support of 2 Active Reviewers to be
+granted.</p>
+
+<p>Note that regardless of a Committer or Reviewer's activity status, any
+subversion account that has not been used in the past year will be deactivated
+for security purposes. For example, a Reviewer that has reviewed a patch in the
+past year but has not committed may have their subversion account deactivated.
+To reactivate a deactivated subversion account, an Active Committer or Active
+Reviewer can send an email to webkit-reviewers requesting it.</p>
