Closed Marsup closed 7 years ago
i like the idea. people who answer questions are super valuable
I agree– it sounds good to me. It grants community-related privileges (i.e. enables useful github features, like labeling issues) those folks might not otherwise have.
I'm somewhat ambivalent, but I'm not a great question answerer. :) I have no particular beef with it.
@mark-bradshaw I guess you'd have to be OK with them sometimes labeling or even closing issues on your own project, there's nothing final about it obviously but that might still be something to consider.
I'm perfectly fine with labeling. Closing... I guess I'm willing to see if it becomes an issue. I expect they'll exercise the same respect that all the other org members do.
Well if you're watching your own repo, it shouldn't be a problem seeing those closed ones.
The idea seems to be mostly accepted. How do you think we should proceed now ? Throw in names and vote ? Since we're talking about people, I'm wondering if we should do this through secret ballot, I want people to feel comfortable saying no without hurting anyone. WDYT ?
Where/how can we do a secret ballot?
http://poll.gitrun.com might be an option, GH login, anonymous results, but you can't restrict to org only I guess, I'm also not sure how it stores the votes, if it sends a +1 in your stead, that's useless. We could also vote with emojis in a private repo but I don't think we have that, do we ? Also it's not that secret. Open to proposals or comments. Do you think we sometimes need a debate about the people or just plain yes/no ?
Maybe using an secret chat room in gitter?
It's harder to "thread" discussions (if there's the need) in a chat. That could be an option since we already have that, I'm just not sure everyone is OK with going on Gitter, I know not all contributors are there.
I think the people who'd actually participate would be ok with just a "yes/no"
I think you look at who is already doing the work, run their names by a few other core contributors and just add them.
So @AdriVanHoudt is the 1st (of hopefully many others) to be in that team, warm welcome to him ! If you feel uncomfortable giving him permissions on your repo just let me know and I'll see if github's permissions can deal with that. Feel free to candidate or suggest names would fit.
Thanks for thinking of me, it is a real honor! 🎆 If there is stuff I should know about labeling or anything specific for your/all repos just let me know! I'm also the easiest to reach on the Gitter if you need me or want to talk to me. (or any medium you like really ^^)
I'm not planning on doing anything code related atm but yeah if you feel uncomfortable about the permission stuff let @Marsup know, don't want to cause any troubles/bad feelings :O
Awesome, welcome @AdriVanHoudt :) This is a good doc to check-out https://github.com/hapijs/contrib/blob/master/Guidelines.md
@devinivy nice, will read it!
Welcome @AdriVanHoudt 👍
this has been done and acted on so i'm going to close the issue :+1:
Testing waters here, how do core contributors feel about welcoming people in the organization that are not code contributors but rather support people that have already shown devotion to the project(s). This might be a good way to help them help us on triaging, and also an acknowledgment of their work.
