Governance policies we need to write

Open kelle opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

We need someone who can take our bullet points and discussions of our "policies" and turn them into actual documents. Leah (NumFocus) has someone internally (Nicole), who she will see if is available and interested in helping us out with this. You could imagine that any documents we write could be used by other projects so this would be an excellent investment in the "full stack" infrastructure.

  • write access. draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qTzqqv9LInvH75LFRKbjFoQngzWmBkefZIn2DUc2Nbk/edit?usp=sharing

  • lead roles - how does one become a maintainer. how does one stop being a maintainer.

  • committee membership - how do we select project members to be members of committees

(Finance, including hiring staff, policy docs are in #51 )

policies now live in https://github.com/astropy/astropy-procedures. Could make a policies folder.

from Leah

Yes, we did discuss it and she is interested. I wasn't sure of the scope of the work though, I'll let y'all discuss the details. Feel free to reach out to her - [email protected].

Let's pause on this until Coordination Meeting.

Just for the record the write access policy ties in to https://github.com/astropy/coordination/issues/145

There's was a Tuesday session at the CoCo mtg on policies, recorded in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pO0giLKGEle5rJeyxhc33rIARY_e_naLiYprScROP84/edit#bookmark=id.xylqf1iojjau
