Hi Guix, this is not a new idea[1]: let’s add a page to the website that lists teams and a mail alias for each of the teams.
For example, the “R team” consists of people familiar with how R packaging works in Guix, e.g. Simon and myself. There would be an alias “guix-tea...@gnu.org”. People with questions about R in Guix could write an email to that alias. Mumi could also send email to guix-tea...@gnu.org to remind them about patches relating to R / Bioconductor / CRAN, etc. Maintainers could write to these teams before releases to ask if there are any obstacles to a release. As a first step I’d suggest collecting teams, setting up the email aliases, and updating the website to show the existing teams. Here’s a draft of three teams: * R team Simon Tournier Ricardo Wurmus * Java team Julien Lepiller * Rust team Efraim Flashner Aleksandr Vityazev Arun Isaac John Soo Maxim Cournoyer Nicolas Goaziou Tobias Geerinckx-Rice What do you think? -- Ricardo [1]: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-12/msg00224.html
