Hi,
Nothing against this nomination but I remember the discussion for
becoming a core contributor was raised before with the PSC and it was
agreed the current method is not ideal and should be reviewed. There
was a plan to formalise the process. There were concerns about
security, rationale to have write access, number of contributors from
an entity...
Seeing the size of the pull request queue that is always on the verge of
exploding, I believe we need more people who actively use their merge
rights than the contrary. The below statistics of who merged the last
1000 pull requests is pretty telling:
Merges per person:
nyalldawson: 588
m-kuhn: 62
troopa81: 59
3nids: 58
rouault: 54
alexbruy: 45
wonder-sk: 41
lbartoletti: 27
elpaso: 20
nirvn: 16
uclaros: 13
jef-n: 5
strk: 4
mhugent: 2
signedav: 2
rldhont: 2
tomkralidis: 1
PeterPetrik: 1
I shouldn't speak for Nyall, but if I was in his position, I would feel
overwhelmed and would enjoy more people helping. This also shows there's
no obvious Oslandia's uptaking of the project.
If we are really concerned about security reasons and want to keep a ~
single person merging into the main repository (but that would be
officially adopting a benevolent dictatorship model), we need to
structure the project in a completely different way, for example ala
Linux kernel, with a repository/tree per "component" (3D, server,
processing, etc.), with one responsible for each repository, and them
sending big pull requests to the main integrator. But that would
certainly complicate and slow down QGIS development (hard to tell if it
would be a good or bad thing). QGIS is probably in an intermediate
position between the typical small/medium github project and the huge
project like the Linux kernel.
