Maintainers Index
=================
This document cross references Python Modules (first table) and platforms
(second table) with the Tracker user names of people who are experts
and/or resources for that module or platform. This list is intended
to be used by issue submitters, issue triage people, and other issue
participants to find people to add to the nosy list or to contact
directly by email for help and decisions on feature requests and bug
fixes. People on this list may be asked to render final judgement on a
feature or bug. If no active maintainer is listed for a given module,
then questionable changes should go to python-dev, while any other issues
can and should be decided by any committer.
The last part of this document is a third table, listing broader topic
areas in which various people have expertise. These people can also
be contacted for help, opinions, and decisions when issues involve
their areas.
If a listed maintainer does not respond to requests for comment for an
extended period (three weeks or more), they should be marked as inactive
in this list by placing the word 'inactive' in parenthesis behind their
tracker id. They are of course free to remove that inactive mark at
any time.
Committers should update this table as their areas of expertise widen.
New topics may be added to the third table at will.
The existence of this list is not meant to indicate that these people
*must* be contacted for decisions; it is, rather, a resource to be used
by non-committers to find responsible parties, and by committers who do
not feel qualified to make a decision in a particular context.
See also `PEP 291`_ and `PEP 360`_ for information about certain modules
with special rules.
