Update arrow-site governance page

[pitrou]

The check_committers list indicates that our governance page is out of date:

$ ../.venv/bin/python check_committers.py 
Missing PMCs in local list: ['jakevin']
Missing committers in local list: ['akurmustafa', 'avantgardner', 'gangwu', 'kevingurney', 'wayne']
Unexpected members in local list: ['avantgardnerio', 'jackwener', 'mustafasrepo', 'waynexia']

@kevingurney Do you want to update https://github.com/apache/arrow-site/blob/main/_data/committers.yml ?

@kevingurney here is an example of how to do so: #356

Unexpected members in local list: ['avantgardnerio', 'jackwener', 'mustafasrepo', 'waynexia']

Some of these are due to members that have different github names than apache names and the github names being what is listed on the committer list.

For example akurmustafa is mustafasrepo,

If you have already scripted a check, perhaps we can make the script update the data automatically?

Hmm, the current convention is to put ASF IDs in the committer list, AFAIR.

How would it do that? I think it's simpler to have people fill in the right information :-)

Thank you @kou and @alamb! I will follow up with a PR to add myself to committers.yml.

Follow up PR: #385

The challenge is that you have to get humans to do something, which is often more challenging than getting computers to do the same thing, I have found.

I was imagining the script could update the contents of data/committers.yml locally

Someone would still have to run it manually and make a PR but that is probably easier than keeping the contents up to date manually.

If I get a chance I will play around with it

I plan to work on this issue this week
