Hello Devs. I would like to improve the quality of the pull-request reviews we see for critical parts of the Apache Geode project. In discussions with other committers, a (not the) big hurdle to that is getting the right eyes to look at a given PR. To that end, I propose the adoption of GitHub's CODEOWNERS functionality for the Apache Geode code repository.
A discussion-document of this issue has been written up by @upthewaterspout. Thanks Dan! https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Introduce+Codeowners+file I have tested the feature with fellow Geode committers @upthewaterspout and @onichols-pivotal, and found it to meet our expectations. Please review the document, and comment or reply to this thread, by 25 November, so we might start the task of nominating and applying for ownership. -Robert Houghton
