Hi, > Is everyone just added to the list of contributors/PMC members?
In my experience for a project going via the incubator generally anyone who asks is added (I can only recall one case where this was not the case and it had a very large list of initial committers). For straight to TLPs that’s not been the case but given they are fairly rare and each different it’s going to depend. > Now, I know some of the people who have contacted me, and I am honored that > they chose to work with me/us on this project. Most people on here I have > never met though and even though I may have read some names on the mailing > list I have no way of assessing whether they are a good fit for a project. Perhaps list out what you see as a good fit / what you are looking for in an initial committer and let people judge themselves against that? > On the other hand, it would be a pity to have a PMC/initial contributors > list with inactive people and no way to "prune" it. There is no issue with having inactive PMC members, and no project bylaws/guidlines I’m aware are based on total number. If you go via the incubator you can also prune the PMC on graduation by asking who wants to stay on.
