Give access to past group members

[iherman]

(This is related to #68, but it is not exactly the same.)

I know that /groups/{group}/users can be used to retrieve the members of a group. However, there is no analogous to

https://www.w3.org/2000/09/dbwg/details?group={group}&former=1

ie, to get the list of all group members, past and present.

I use the API-s to automatically generate the acknowledgement section of a spec, simply listing all members of the group. It would be unfair if, say, when publishing the Rec only the then active members of the group were listed and not the past...

It seems that this request went down the drain... Any reaction on it? @tripu @deniak @jean-gui ?

I think @jean-gui or @vivienlacourba will be the best to evaluate the feasibility of this.

I am still waiting to see if somebody cares about this request... :-(

Implemented. See https://api.w3.org/doc#get--groups-{group}-users and https://api.w3.org/groups/47318/users?former=true

Thank you @jean-gui !
