> There's already a lot of manual steps involved in becoming a committer. Do we have documentation for the manual steps? If so, I'm + 1 to create an orphaned branch to store the extra committer list, and could you please add this new step to the document. > Generating "Reviewers:" strings automatically. We already have `reviewers.py` which can generate the strings. Or you are taking about "approvers"?
