Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11730:
----------------------------------------
bq. I think having a "ask Foo about inclusion in release X" would be useful
That sounds reasonable to me
> Document release managers for non-deprecated branches

> Key: HBASE-11730
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11730
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
>
> New development goes against trunk and is backported as desired to existing
> release branches. From what I have seen on the jira, it looks like each
> branch's release manager makes the call on backporting a particular issue.
> We should document both this norm and who the relevant release manager is for
> each branch.
> In the current docs, I'd suggest adding the RM list to the "Codelines"
> section (18.11.1) and add a brief explanation of pinging the RM as a new
> section after "submitting a patch again" (18.12.6).
> Post HBASE-4593, the note about pinging a prior branch RM should just go as a
> bullet in the "patch workflow."
