  • Re: Requests to join DPT haven't been processed for months

    From Stefano Rivera@21:1/5 to All on Sat Apr 6 09:50:22 2024
    Hi Christian (2024.04.01_15:45:20_+0000)
    one of the GSoC candidates I'm mentoring hasn't had his request to join
    the team processed for a month. I then checked and unless I'm mistaken,
    *no*( requests filed in 2024 have been processed. At least, all threads
    I could find are as of yet unanswered.

    We've added a new owner to help out. Thanks peb!

    Stefano

    Hi Christian,

    Thanks for investigating & raising this!

    Some of the requests were already accompanied by contributions, so it
    would be a extra shame to have these contributors move on.

    Is there any way I (or anyone else) can help with this?


    See https://salsa.debian.org/groups/python-team/packages/-/group_members?sort=access_level_desc
    . : we have 5 "owners" in python-team/packages , and lots of "maintainer"s . IIRC only owners can add new maintainers or developers. (Please correct me if I'm wrong here.)

    Hope this helps. (Sorry, I lack the time to do more on this (pretty painful!) problem).

    Bye,

    Joost

    Thanks.

    Can I ask why do we have such high barrier of entry for new team
    members? And while at that, I've offered help to approve new member
    requests before and the offer was turned down.
