R. David Murrayec51d032010-04-16 13:37:56 +0000[diff] [blame]9This document has tables that list Python Modules, Tools, Platforms and
10Interest Areas and names for each item that indicate a maintainer or an
11expert in the field. This list is intended to be used by issue submitters,
12issue triage people, and other issue participants to find people to add to
13the nosy list or to contact directly by email for help and decisions on
14feature requests and bug fixes. People on this list may be asked to render
15final judgement on a feature or bug. If no active maintainer is listed for
16a given module, then questionable changes should go to python-dev, while
17any other issues can and should be decided by any committer.

Florent Xiclunab4efb3d2010-08-14 18:24:40 +0000[diff] [blame]19Unless a name is followed by a '*', you should never assign an issue to
20that person, only make them nosy. Names followed by a '*' may be assigned
Éric Araujo9dba9c42011-02-26 13:02:50 +0000[diff] [blame]21issues involving the module or topic.
Florent Xiclunab4efb3d2010-08-14 18:24:40 +0000[diff] [blame]22
R. David Murrayec51d032010-04-16 13:37:56 +0000[diff] [blame]23The Platform and Interest Area tables list broader fields in which various
24people have expertise. These people can also be contacted for help,
25opinions, and decisions when issues involve their areas.
R. David Murray1ffc3522009-09-19 19:04:37 +0000[diff] [blame]26
27If a listed maintainer does not respond to requests for comment for an
28extended period (three weeks or more), they should be marked as inactive
29in this list by placing the word 'inactive' in parenthesis behind their
30tracker id. They are of course free to remove that inactive mark at
31any time.
32
Florent Xiclunab4efb3d2010-08-14 18:24:40 +0000[diff] [blame]33Committers should update these tables as their areas of expertise widen.
34New topics may be added to the Interest Area table at will.
R. David Murray1ffc3522009-09-19 19:04:37 +0000[diff] [blame]35
36The existence of this list is not meant to indicate that these people
37*must* be contacted for decisions; it is, rather, a resource to be used
38by non-committers to find responsible parties, and by committers who do
39not feel qualified to make a decision in a particular context.
