THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
...
FINERACT will designate contributors to committers via the following process.
- A current committer PMC member will decide to sponsor a contributor.
- The sponsor will propose via the private mailing list, that a contributor be made a committer. The sponsor should explain why he or she believes the contributor should be made a committer. At this point it would be unkind to inform the contributor in case the proposal fails the vote.
- If within 72 hours of the proposal, no committers have vetoed the proposal, the proposal is accepted.
- The sponsor will ask the contributor if he or she wishes to become a committer.
- If contributor so desires, the sponsor will set in motion the processes necessary to add a new committer to FINERACT.
...
To be made a developer committer, a contributor should have developed experience with FINERACT by
- creating bug fixes AND or programming features,
- producing multiple high quality code changes as determined by an existing committer using the Code Review Guide,
- owning and fixing their own mistakes, and
- mentoring other contributors.
