The committers of OFBiz are a core group of developers who have the ability to commit changes into the OFBiz source code repository. As the project has grown over the years, there have been more committers of projects, so we thought it be a good idea to define what the roles and responsibilities of the committers are. These points below are based on discussions we recently had on the developers' list:

Apache Software Foundation Committer Information

Because OFBiz is a project of the Apache Software Foundation all OFBiz committers are Apache committers.

Once we have invited you to become a committer we need the following from you:

  • An Individual Contributor License Agreement (iCLA) on file with the ASF (see iCLA text document)
  • If you are employed we may also need a Corporate CLA in addition to the iCLA (see cCLA text document)
  • Once we have these filed it will be time to get your account created on people.apache.org, for this we need from you:
    • your preferred userid, plus an alternative or two
    • your full name, as listed on your iCLA
    • your forwarding email address, needs to be the same as on your iCLA
