Repository for discussion on how to help ensure baseline maintenance and ability to safely use key packages in the ecosystem with current Node.js versions. You can find more about this initiative in the article: Call to Action: Accelerating Node.js Growth
Are you a maintainer of an open source project looking for help and resources maintaining your package and community? To get you started,
Want to provide feedback on your experiences as a maintainer? Want to let us know what topic and tools you think would be helpful to pursue within this group? Open a PR to fill out this survey and the team will be sure to review and get in touch with you.
We encourage participation from members across the Node.js and JavaScript ecosystem. Feel free to join schedule meetings and participate in the issues within the repository.
The package-maintenance team has two levels of membership. Administrative members and regular members.
If you'd like to be listed as regular team member, open a PR adding yourself to this MEMBERS.md along with a few words on how you are planning to contribute to the team's efforts.
Administrative members take on additional levels of responsibility with respect to managing the pkgjs organization and the other repositories managed by the working group. Administrative members should have a long standing involvement in the working group.
Individuals who have made significant contributions and who wish to be considered as an Administrative member may create an issue or contact an Administrative WG member directly. It is not necessary to wait for an Administrative WG member to nominate the individual.
For more details refer to the WG Governance document.
Meetings of the working group typically occur bi-weekly as shown on the the node.js project calendar. A few days before each meeting, an issue will be created with the date and time of the meeting. The issue will provide schedule logistics as well as an agenda, links to meeting minutes, and information about how to join as a participant or a viewer.
The working group can chat on the Node.js slack
in the channel #package-maintenance in order to continue conversations beyond the meetings.
All the contributors are expected to follow the Code of Conduct
of the Node.js project.
To join on slack you have to send a request and wait to be accepted: it is a manual workflow, so it could take some days (we are working to help improve this).
The package maintenance team policy on landing a PR in the nodejs/package-maintenance repository is for there to be:
