Maintainers Index
|
=================
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
This document is out of date and replaced by another version in the
|
developer's guide at http://docs.python.org/devguide/experts
|
|
This document has tables that list Python Modules, Tools, Platforms and
|
Interest Areas and names for each item that indicate a maintainer or an
|
expert in the field. This list is intended to be used by issue submitters,
|
issue triage people, and other issue participants to find people to add to
|
the nosy list or to contact directly by email for help and decisions on
|
feature requests and bug fixes. People on this list may be asked to render
|
final judgement on a feature or bug. If no active maintainer is listed for
|
a given module, then questionable changes should go to python-dev, while
|
any other issues can and should be decided by any committer.
|
|
Unless a name is followed by a '*', you should never assign an issue to
|
that person, only make them nosy. Names followed by a '*' may be assigned
|
issues involving the module or topic.
|
|
The Platform and Interest Area tables list broader fields in which various
|
people have expertise. These people can also be contacted for help,
|
opinions, and decisions when issues involve their areas.
|
|
If a listed maintainer does not respond to requests for comment for an
|
extended period (three weeks or more), they should be marked as inactive
|
in this list by placing the word 'inactive' in parenthesis behind their
|
tracker id. They are of course free to remove that inactive mark at
|
any time.
|
|
Committers should update these tables as their areas of expertise widen.
|
New topics may be added to the Interest Area table at will.
|
|
The existence of this list is not meant to indicate that these people
|
*must* be contacted for decisions; it is, rather, a resource to be used
|
by non-committers to find responsible parties, and by committers who do
|
not feel qualified to make a decision in a particular context.
|
|
See also `PEP 291`_ and `PEP 360`_ for information about certain modules
|
with special rules.
