Agreed; we should start a thread on this topic.
OK, that is this thread then :)
First, on joining this mailinglist, which is public, but till now we
only have allowed GNU maintainers who endorsed the GNU Social Contract
to join.
https://lists.gnu.tools/postorius/lists/assembly.lists.gnu.tools/
The GNU Assembly <https://gnu.tools/> is a group of GNU project
members who transparently and collectively produce technical and
organizational recommendations for GNU packages following the GNU
Social Contract <https://wiki.gnu.tools/gnu:social-contract>
- How do we open up the participation in the mailinglist?
Do we simply say that anybody contributing to a GNU package may join
as long as the endorse the GNU Social Contract and adheres to the
Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct? Shall we just ask that question
to whoever tries to subscribe and allow them to participate if they
reply yes?
And secondly,
- Is being part of the mailinglist the same as being a GNU Assembly
member? And if not, what is the difference? Do you get a wiki
account?
Cheers,
Mark
