SIG Contributor Experience

We need your help!!!

Developing and sustaining a healthy community of contributors is critical to scaling the project and growing the ecosystem. We need to ensure our contributors are happy and productive, we need to break the commit-rate ceiling we hit in July 2015, and we need to get the monotonically growing PR merge latency and numbers of open PRs and issues under control.

Meeting:

Goals:

  • Ensure contributors are happy and productive.
  • Owns project PR and issue automation.
  • Help people get involved in the Kubernetes Community.

Organizers:

Issues:

  • Detailed backlog
  • velocity-improvement issues
  • Too many notifications, which are insufficiently targeted and have too little context, as well as missing notifications for important events
  • Too-coarse ACLs
  • Inadequate PR reviewer assignment and processes, with too small a reviewer pool
  • Lack of a sustainable approach to issue management (we have thousands of open issues, with over 100 new ones each week)
  • Lack of processes for growing leadership within the community
  • Trying to maintain a large monorepo in github, which is intended for small repos and teams
  • Insufficient project-wide (cross-SIG) communication and coordination
  • Too many flaky tests
  • Excessive PR rebases due to checking in generated files
  • Inadequate and out-of-date contributor documentation
