| 12 | +# Expectations of Maintainers |

| 15 | + |
| 16 | +- Make contributions to FireFly code repositories including code or documentation |
| 17 | +- Review pull requests |
| 18 | +- Investigate open GitHub issues |
| 19 | +- Participate in Community Calls |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +# Becoming a Maintainer |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +The FireFly Project welcomes and encourages people to become maintainers of the project if they are interested and meet the following criteria: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Criteria for becoming a member |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +- Expressed interest and commitment to meet the expectations of a maintainer for at least 6 months |
| 28 | +- A consistent track record of contributions to FireFly code repositories which could be: |
| 29 | + - Enhancements |
| 30 | + - Bug fixes |
| 31 | + - Tests |
| 32 | + - Documentation |
| 33 | +- A consistent track record of helpful code reviews on FireFly code repositories |
| 34 | +- Regular participation in Community Calls |
| 35 | +- A demonstrated interest and aptitude in thought leadership within the FireFly Project |
| 36 | +- Sponsorship from an existing maintainer |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +There is no specific quantity of contributions or pull requests, or a specific time period over which the candidate must prove their track record. This will be left up to the discretion of the existing maintainers. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +## Process for becoming a maintainer |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +Once the above criteria have been met, the sponsoring maintainer shall propose the addition of the new maintainer at a public Community Call. Existing maintainers shall vote at the next public Community Call whether the new maintainer should be added or not. Proxy votes may be submitted via email _before_ the meeting. A simple majority of the existing maintainers is required for the vote to pass. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +## Maintainer resignation |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +While maintainers are expected in good faith to be committed to the project for a significant period of time, they are under no binding obligation to do so. Maintainers may resign at any time for any reason. If a maintainer wishes to resign they shall open a pull request to update the maintainers list removing themselves from the list. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +## Maintainer inactivity |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +If a maintainer has remained inactive (not meeting the expectations of a maintainer) for a period of time (at least several months), an email should be sent to that maintainer noting their inactivity and asking if they still wish to be a maintainer. If they continue to be inactive after being notified via email, an existing maintainer may propose to remove the inactive maintainer at a public Community Call. Existing maintainers shall vote at the next public Community Call whether the inactive maintainer should be removed or not. Proxy votes may be submitted via email _before_ the meeting. A simple majority of the existing maintainers is required for the vote to pass. |
