Some very good discussion and points are being made here. Bravo to Victor (and Ezio as well as others) for taking the initiative to foster contributors and recognizing / thanking them for their contributions. I think what Antoine pointed out about having the tools / permissions to be effective at contributing in whatever capacity is also very important. Having recognition without the tools or tools without recognition isn't optimal. Having both leads to the greatest likelihood for future contributions from an individual. Feeling valued and being effective are both critical to keeping a contributor engaged in the community. > _______________________________________________ > python-committers mailing list > python-committers@python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers > Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/ _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
