Re: [GRASS-PSC] new core developers: past procedures ?

Hi Peter, well, based on merit^2, overall agreement and gut feeling. No hardcoded procedure though (IMHO that's not even possible). I briefly checked what the GDAL and the QGIS project do here but could not find any procedure there, too. Maybe others have more insights.

Dear all, I would like that we set-up a "test" repo where users like me (I guess there are others like) who like to mess up working things, can play around and improve skills in complex git merging scenarios.

Open discussion without names :-) ok.. given the "wild" discussion, perhaps a different procedure is desired? I don't really think so. I think we should make this much more concrete. Does anyone have someone they want to propose as core developer ? Personally, I think that this should just happen naturally, with possibly a more proactive call (like yours) once in a while. Do you have anyone specific in mind ? Who are the people who have contributed much in the form of addons ? I think that anyone who has a candidate should just propose to the PSC, or ? Like: - propose and go for voting? Note that according to RFC1 [1] + the HwoToContribute [2] we need to vote for a new core developer; - migrate to git and no more need to use this procedure? That will probably still take some time, so I think that if there are candidates we should invite them now. But as you say, git might help incite more people to "just" contribute...

Yes: I would like to propose Veronica Andreo (https://veroandreo.wordpress.com ; https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Veronica_Andreo2). For a long time, she is continuously contributing to GRASS GIS, a great (T)GRASS power user and likely to contribute a better documentation and more. Granting core write access to her would enables her to collect contribution related "credits" directly rather than through indirect "on behalf of someone" commit messages. I am sure that she'd be careful when committing and, thanks to the revision system things are peer reviewed (via https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-commit/) and adjustable anyway.
