This thread is to discuss the possibility of revision the current committer criteria in light of the following goals: - Make it easier to newcomers to be committers - Recognize non-code contributions as paths to committership - Open the door to separating levels of committer and PMC (discussed in another thread) Current State: The current committer criteria is here https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/Becoming+a+Committer as is modeled after the Hadoop committer criteria https://hadoop.apache.org/committer_criteria.html Proposal: Model the MXNet path to committership and PMC after the Apache Beam project https://beam.apache.org/contribute/become-a-committer/ Short quote from page: =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D An Apache Beam committer=E2=80=A6 - Takes many forms - Knows, upholds, and reinforces the Apache Software Foundation code of conduct - Knows, upholds, and reinforces the responsibilities of an Apache Software Foundation committer - Knows, upholds, and reinforces the Beam community=E2=80=99s practices - =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D I believe if we merge our current committer criteria with this model it will open the path to committership to a wider pool, acknowledge that there are multiple paths, and reinforce the ASF values and responsibilities= . The Beam model does not explicitly address a PMC level but we could add it in in the same spirit of reinforcing the ASF responsibilities and values of this level. Looking forward to feedback about this possible direction. If the community is interested looking more into this direction I would be happy to create of first draft of something more concrete to look at - (or if someone else wants to take a crack at it too that would be great) - Carin --0000000000001845b8057894241c--
