| Maintainers Index | |
| ================= | |
| .. warning:: | |
| This document is out of date and replaced by another version in the | |
| developer's guide at http://docs.python.org/devguide/experts | |
| This document has tables that list Python Modules, Tools, Platforms and | |
| Interest Areas and names for each item that indicate a maintainer or an | |
| expert in the field. 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. | |
| Unless a name is followed by a '*', you should never assign an issue to | |
| that person, only make them nosy. Names followed by a '*' may be assigned | |
| issues involving the module or topic. | |
| The Platform and Interest Area tables list broader fields 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 these tables as their areas of expertise widen. | |
| New topics may be added to the Interest Area 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. | |
