We believe in being open and transparent, so we encourage everyone to use GitHub Discussions as their first choice. This public space lets everyone see and join our conversations, which helps new volunteers learn from past discussions and feel included in our community.

### Team governance

The admin team has a minimum of three and a maximum of ten members. The exact number is determined by the admin team from time to time. The size of the admin team should reflect the workload and responsibilities of the team; as the needs of the organization change, the size of the admin team will adjust by vote. (Example: during transition periods, the size of the admin team may need to be larger.)

The admin team may change around September. In August, the admin team will put out a public call to its membership to gauge interest in joining the admin team. Based on that interest, the admin team will decide:

At this time, the process for selecting new admin team members is based around the current admin team interviewing candidates it deems suitable. An election process was considered but as of April 2025, the admin team feels Django Commons has not matured enough for elections to provide tangible benefits over self-selection.
