### Nomination

A **Maintainer** requests the addition of a new **Contributor** in the private *Maintainers* channel in Zulip, listing the number of nontrival contributions by that person. A person may also request that a **Maintainer** nominates them and vouch for them. If no objections are raised within one week, the person is added to the **Contributors** team.

Additionally, if four other maintainers express support before the week has elapsed then there is no need to wait out the remaining time.

We have discussed about this in the TSC call today, it seems it'd be nice to add a minimum of 1 or 2 days of waiting time before we can make someone a contributor, in case someone has any concern to raise. Otherwise a new contributor could be approved in a few hours, without allowing any chance for someone to say anything about that person.

Would you be fine adding something like that to the new proposed text?
