I'd say neither psc nor commit rights are a good fit. While I agree that the psc should definitely have a say, not everyone on the psc is a developer or has c++ coding experience. Similarly, we have people who have commit rights who are neither developers nor psc members. Since a big part of the qep would be commenting on proposed technical architecture, I think its fairly important that developers have a good say in the process. But conversely if the qep process determines the direction of QGIS, then non devs on the psc should also have a say. So, I'd say we need a new group for voters. We could have a process like: - a candidate is nominated & seconded (possibly by psc members only?) - the candidate gives a short reasoning on why they'd like to be part of the group and what skills they have - after receiving a set number of votes the candidate is accepted into the group. (Again, possibly only the psc could vote on candidates?). Nyall
