For some more background, please have a look at the ticket https://github.com/python/voters/issues/16 and the associated PR https://github.com/python/voters/pull/25
I used the email addresses from the python-core.toml file and will collect replies in the next two weeks and collect them in this PR: https://github.com/python/voters/pull/30 This can then be merged before creating the final voter roll for the election.
PS: I attached the mail merge template I used for the emails below.
Cheers,

Yes, this was a mistake on my part. I forgot to merge master into my branch before running the script. Sorry.

Hi Marc-Andre,
I updated my status in the github file directly. Why am I still being listed here?
Probably by mistake. I forgot to merge master into my branch before running the tool. Sorry.

This is the current output of the voters roll command:
Last voter roll is voter-files/2019-12-01-2020-python-steering-council-election.csv
3 people are slated to NOT vote this time (compared to the last vote): Skip Montanaro Stefan Krah Xavier de Gaye
12 people are NEW voters: Batuhan Taskaya Brandt Bucher Chris Jerdonek Dong-hee Na Georg Brandl Hynek Schlawack Jack Jansen Karthikeyan Singaravelan Kyle Stanley Lysandros Nikolaou Mark Hammond Sandro Tosi
0 people will be notified of their pending inactive status:
The vote.csv file lists 91 core devs.
This completes the "Those who haven't made any non-trivial contribution in two years may be asked to move themselves to this category, and moved there if they don't respond." part of PEP 13 for this year.
