...
There are three defined roles associated with artifact contributions. Note, these definitions are based on suggestions from https://www.linuxfoundation.org/resources/open-source-guides/participating-open-source-communities/ and https://opensource.guide/leadership-and-governance/.
Contributor: anyone who comments on an issue or pull request, people who add value to the project (whether it’s triaging issues, writing code, or organizing events), or anybody with a merged pull request (perhaps the narrowest definition of a contributor). Anyone, whether a member of EdgeX or not, can be a contributor; for example, anyone can make a pull request on one of the GitHub repositories and make a code contribution. Any contribution must be have an appropriate DCO sign off and the author is required to follow the laws and policies with regard to copyright law, Apache 2 license agreements, and Linux Foundation policies, but all . All contributions that follow these rules and policies are greatly appreciated, subject to project review and possible incorporation into the project. A person making a contribution is deemed a contributor.
Committer: the people with commit access to EdgeX repositories. It is a committerMaintainer: Maintainers own one or several components in the projects source tree. A maintainer reviews and approves changes that affect their components. It is a maintainer's prime responsibility to review, comment on, co-ordinate, accept and merge additions and accept patches from contributors and to maintain the design cohesion of their the project components. Maintainers are listed in a MAINTAINERS list on this page for each code repository.
Larger projects may have special maintainer roles such as a release manager and stable branch maintainers. In addition, larger projects may award different maintainers different levels of influence. Any specializations and implications are documented in the respective MAINTAINERS file.
Committers are members of the EdgeX community who feel responsibility over the direction of the project and are committed to improving it. Committers hold technical leadership within the EdgeX community and are typically people who have greatly contributed to the project and are considered reliable and responsible enough to be allowed to commit directly to all or some parts of the project.
Maintainer: Maintainers originally create the EdgeX repository and have access rights to archive or even delete the repository. Often, a member of the Linux Foundation, maintainers are also committers in EdgeX by default, but typically do not participate in review or commits to the project except in performing administrative duties or to repair a repository issueCommitter: Committers are Maintainers that are allowed to commit changes into the source code repository. The committer acts on the wishes of the maintainers and applies changes that have been approved by the respective maintainer(s) to the source tree. Due to their status in the community, committers can also act as referees should disagreements amongst maintainers arise. Committers are listed on this page for each code repository.
Nomination and Approval of Maintainers and Committers
...
By default, project working group leads are automatically committers for repositories assigned to their working group. Working group leads can nominate additional committers for repositories assigned to their working group. Approval of new committers requires the approval of 3 members of the TSC with at least two approvals coming from TSC members from different companies.
The TSC chair and vice chair are automatic committers for all repositories.
The TSC may appoint (with a simple majority vote) other committers and maintainers as it sees fit based on merit (such as architectural purview of the project, knowledge of the project, volume of contributions, etc.) or need.
The TSC can, by simple majority vote, revoke the committer or maintainer privilege.
WG Leads are requested to update the lists below on the approval of any new committer or maintainer at their request. The TSC Vice Chair will update this list when a TSC committer or maintainer is added/removed on a decision taken outside of a request from a WG lead.
Current Committers List
...
As the Linux Foundation maintains the EdgeX repository collection, maintainers are typically appointed by the Linux Foundation and are generally employees of the LF. The TSC can approve additional maintainers by simple majority vote.
Active Maintainers and Committers
