Research direction

Start at lib/whimsy/asf/committee.rb around line 523 and inspect how committee-info.yml abbreviations are parsed for the nonpmcs list. Check the RAI committee metadata and determine whether its abbreviation is causing the parsing problem. Done means the Responsible AI committee appears in nonpmcs without breaking other committee entries.

Description

The Responsible AI (rai) committee is not making it to the nonpmcs list.

There is some type of parsing problem in https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/lib/whimsy/asf/committee.rb#L523

Should the "abbreviation" inside the committee-info.yml file be changed?
