Discussion? This discussion is not meaningful without the larger context of the duties and responsibilities of the Maintainer role on GitHub. In general, projects only appoint individuals to these privileged roles that can be trusted to act responsibly. After all, the powers that come with these roles are extensive, going far beyond what is discussed here (editing individual comments). That said, a review is necessary of who currently holds such privileged roles and for what purpose -- both on GitHub and in other parts of the project's infrastructure. I started such a review in June 2024 (on and off the sagemath-admins list) and will follow up on this. See https://github.com/sagemath/sage/wiki/Infrastructure (thanks to Kwankyu Lee for helping with the organization of this material). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
