There are different types of maintainers, with different responsibilities, but
|

|
all maintainers have 3 things in common:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) They share responsibility in the project's success.
|
||
|
2) They have made a long-term, recurring time investment to improve the project.
|
||
|
3) They spend that time doing whatever needs to be done, not necessarily what
|
||
|
is the most interesting or fun.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Maintainers are often under-appreciated, because their work is harder to appreciate.
|
||
|
It's easy to appreciate a really cool and technically advanced feature. It's harder
|
||
|
to appreciate the absence of bugs, the slow but steady improvement in stability,
|
||
|
or the reliability of a release process. But those things distinguish a good
|
||
|
project from a great one.

|

|
Maintainers are first and foremost contributors that have shown they are
|

|
committed to the long term success of a project. Contributors wanting to become
|
||
|
maintainers are expected to be deeply involved in contributing code, pull
|
||
|
request review, and triage of issues in the project for more than three months.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Just contributing does not make you a maintainer, it is about building trust
|

|
with the current maintainers of the project and being a person that they can
|
||
|
depend on and trust to make decisions in the best interest of the project.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Periodically, the existing maintainers curate a list of contributors that have
|
||
|
shown regular activity on the project over the prior months. From this list,
|
||
|
maintainer candidates are selected and proposed on the maintainers mailing list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
After a candidate has been announced on the maintainers mailing list, the
|
||
|
existing maintainers are given five business days to discuss the candidate,
|
||
|
raise objections and cast their vote. Candidates must be approved by at least 66% of the current maintainers by adding their vote on the mailing
|
||
|
list. Only maintainers of the repository that the candidate is proposed for are
|
||
|
allowed to vote.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If a candidate is approved, a maintainer will contact the candidate to invite
|
||
|
the candidate to open a pull request that adds the contributor to the
|
||
|
MAINTAINERS file. The candidate becomes a maintainer once the pull request is
|
||
|
merged.

Similar to the procedure for adding new maintainers, existing maintainers can

activity over the last three months.

If a maintainer has shown insufficient activity over this period, a neutral

person will contact the maintainer to ask if they want to continue being

a maintainer. If the maintainer decides to step down as a maintainer, they

If the maintainer wants to remain a maintainer, but is unable to perform the

the current maintainers. An e-mail is sent to the

mailing list, inviting maintainers of the project to vote. The voting period is

five business days. Issues related to a maintainer's performance should be

Short answer: EVERYTHING IS A PULL REQUEST.
|

|
|
||
|
distribution is an open-source project with an open design philosophy. This means
|
||
|
that the repository is the source of truth for EVERY aspect of the project,
|
||
|
including its philosophy, design, road map, and APIs. *If it's part of the
|
||
|
project, it's in the repo. If it's in the repo, it's part of the project.*
|
||
|
|
||
|
As a result, all decisions can be expressed as changes to the repository. An
|
||
|
implementation change is a change to the source code. An API change is a change
|
||
|
to the API specification. A philosophy change is a change to the philosophy
|
||
|
manifesto, and so on.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All decisions affecting distribution, big and small, follow the same 3 steps:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Step 1: Open a pull request. Anyone can do this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Step 2: Discuss the pull request. Anyone can do this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Step 3: Merge or refuse the pull request. Who does this depends on the nature
|
||
|
of the pull request and which areas of the project it affects.

Some distribution contributors are not as familiar with `git`, or have used a web

way forward.

In this case, maintainers can update the commits based on clause (c) of the DCO.

The most trivial way for a contributor to allow the maintainer to do this, is to

add a DCO signature in a pull requests's comment, or a maintainer can simply

note that the change is sufficiently trivial that it does not substantially

change the existing contribution - i.e., a spelling change.
