Add more gitlab-shell maintainers
Overview
Approximately 12 months ago, 3 of the 5 gitlab-shell maintainers worked in the team responsible for the project (Source Code BE) with 3 maintainers now being reduced to 1 maintainer.
Proposal
I believe it's critical for gitlab-shell to have maintainers who actively work in and responsible for the project and so I'm proposing we add at minimum 1 and ideally 2 additional gitlab-shell maintainers from the Source Code BE team.
To achieve the goal to become a Gitlab Shell Maintainer here are the steps to follow.
-
Open an child item under this issue to apply for Maintainer status. Example -
Begin reviewing Open MR's and provide updates in the Maintainer issue. -
Gather feedback on the issue from an existing GitLab Shell Maintainer on the review checkpoints. -
Start contributing to Gitlab Shell project.
There are no strict requirements to become a maintainer for GitLab-Shell. Based on the process followed previously, to become a maintainer, we can ensure to:
- Contribute at least 3 merge requests
- Review at least 3 merge requests
- Review the codebase to be familiar with it
