Project Maintenance Processes
=============================
Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) project follows the generic `trustedfirmware.org
Project Maintenance Process`_. The present document complements it by defining
TF-A project-specific decisions.
How to become a maintainer?
---------------------------
Qualifying Criteria
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To be elligible to become a maintainer for TF-A project, all criteria outlined
`here`_ must be fullfilled. These are:
- Being an active member of the project for at least a couple of years.
- Having contributed a substantial number of non-trivial and high-quality
patches.
- Having reviewed a substantial number of non-trivial patches, preferably in the
generic layer, with high-quality constructive feedback.
- Behaving in a professional and polite way, with the best interests of the
project at heart.
- Showing a strong will to improve the project and to do the right thing, rather
than going for the quick and easy path.
- Participating in design discussions on the development mailing list and during
TF-A tech forums calls.
- Having appropriate bandwidth (minimum 2 hours per week) to deal with the workload.
Election Process
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To put an individual's name up for election,
#. Send an email to all existing TF-A maintainers, asking whether they have any
objections to this individual becoming a TF-A maintainer.
#. Give existing maintainers one calendar week to participate in the discussion.
#. If there are objections, the existing maintainers should try to resolve them
amongst themselves. If they cannot, this should be escalated to the
trustedfirmware.org Technical Steering Commitee (TSC).
#. If there are no (more) objections, announce the news on the TF-A mailing list
and update the list of maintainers on the :ref:`Project
Maintenance<maintainers>` page.
