Process for becoming a maintainer

Generally, express interest. This usually includes things like:

  • Contributing 2+ PRs to Cartography.
  • Regularly participating in discussion on GitHub, on Slack, or in our live video meetings.

Maintainer responsibilities

  • Hang out on Slack; delayed response is perfectly acceptable
  • Triage GitHub issues and perform pull request reviews for other maintainers and the community.
  • Deeply understand the project's best practices and development patterns.

When does a maintainer lose maintainer status

  • If a maintainer is no longer interested or cannot perform the maintainer duties listed above, they should volunteer to be moved to emeritus status.
  • If we do not hear from you in over a year, we may remove you from maintainer status without notice.

Conflict resolution

We handle conflicts on a case-by-case basis. In general, let's talk it out (Slack, video call, etc). For larger issues we may need to involve more people to come to a decision.
