This has fallen by the wayside, let's try restarting. As Carlton points out, Claude hasn't been merging in code without others reviewing it. But as I understand it is useful to keep translations moving that he can merge in his or others' (accepted) PR's. It gets us to the minimum of three

Thanks James for summarizing the process. Thanks Mariusz for the suggestion. Let's make it official, then. I'd like to nominate Claude Paroz (https://github.com/claudep) to be a Merger for the Django project and ask my fellow Technical Board members to cast their votes. Claude has been

Hey! Thanks for suggesting me as a merger! However, I'd like to clarify that I'm not requesting this commit bit. If the project thinks it's good that I get it, I'll accept that and do my best to use it as the new DEP suggests. If not, I can certainly continue to contribute as I've done in the

So I guess it's worth walking through how to do this. The first step would be a member of the Technical Board deciding Mariusz' suggestion is a good one, and nominating Claude to be a Merger, putting the question to the full Technical Board for voting: "Shall Claude be appointed a Merger?" The

A quick refresher on this since DEP 10 governance is still quite new: Mergers have no special decision-making privileges -- being a Merger, while important for the project, is not equivalent to the former "committer"/"core" status, and is not used as an honor or as a reward for past service or

Seconded. Claude is one of the few existing committers who still uses and needs his commit access. He handles the translation updates for each release, and we’d be (not lost but) lost without that help. Kind Regards, Carlton On Fri, 13 Mar 2020 at 20:30, Mariusz Felisiak wrote: > I
