Committer list [was: Re: NOTICE: Gitolite migration is complete.]

Sounds good to me. I've found the same info useful. In fact, just
yesterday I had added the list of committers I assembled to the
Contributors page:
http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Contributors
I've gone ahead and created a Committers page with more info. It also
lets people know who to contact (me) if they would like access, and
should help people find out who to talk to when they need help.
http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Committers
I went ahead and filled out most of the details on the people I'm
aware of, except for email. I'm not sure what you'd like to publicly
put out there on Trac.
Developers - If you'd like, please take the time to fill in your email
and amend anything I got wrong (e.g. I just put pretty much everyone's
"committer date" as this month.)
(Also, forgive me for looking into most peoples affiliations and
listing them here, but it does help individual identification - and
it's a decently diverse set of places, which is neat in its own
right!)

Herbert, Austin, Simon
Thanks for taking charge of our git repos. Very very helpful!
On the question of committers, there's always the danger that we give people commit permission, and several years later they've gone silent and we can barely remember who or why. I wonder if we should have a "Committers" wiki page, with a bullet for each person in this format:
* Simon Peyton Jones, Microsoft Research, Cambridge, UK. Trac: simonpj; email: simonpj@microsoft.com. Added as a committer June 2013. Main areas of interest: renamer, type checker, optimiser.
I often have trouble connecting people's Trac identity with their email; and it's quite helpful to know which country people are in and where they work.
Do you think that would make sense? We could also establish the convention that if you don’t commit for a year you'll lose commit access; though it can be re-activated on request.

Thanks Austin. (All on ghc-devs: do chime in.)
* There is some overlap with the [wiki:Contributors] page, but I think that
serve a purpose.
- [wiki:Committers] is person-focused
- [wiki:Contributors] is role-focused
If that's our intent, perhaps we should move all the person-focused stuff to
Committters (and re-title it), leaving only the role-focused stuff on Contributors
(and re-title that too).
Does that make sense? We certainly don't want a duplicate list of committers
on both.
* I think it's right to list email addresses (though please yell if you object).
We do need to know how to get in touch with committers.
* I like knowing real names, locations, and affiliations. We are an embodied
group of colleagues, not avatars. Again, yell if you object.
If there's a consensus on these latter two points we should maybe say in the "what it means to be a committer" preamble, so that future committers know.

I thought about the redundancy too, and I'm all for streamlining the
wiki. I went ahead and reorganized stuff a bit.
The 'Contributor' page is now a stub that leads you to:
- The code owners page, which covers the high level roles people take
on: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/CodeOwners
- The GHC Team page, which covers individuals in particular and
joining up: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/TeamGHC
I decided to put the platform maintainers with the rest of the
committers on the team page and not the owner page, since the format
comes off more as "Individual people to contact", as opposed to "the
general roles people take on." Although I'm open to disagreement.
I also went ahead and filled out most of the remaining details for the
existing team. (You are all free to remove your information as you
wish of course.)
PS: I also realized that Trac won't show emails if you're not logged
in, so this may help prevent some measure of spam. A lot of it seems
to have gone away recently, post-server move.

Great. Personally I think "Platform maintainers" would be better under TeamGHC, since it's a kind of ownership of an area.
Everyone: fill in your details on TeamGHC.

Would it be sensible to add links to personal academic (or other) websites? I think that might be more helpful to the casual viewer than email addresses, actually. Richard On Aug 18, 2013, at 11:50 AM, Simon Peyton-Jones wrote:

I don't see why not. You can add whatever you want there. I put emails
down for basic consistency - that's how we communicate amongst
ourselves, here on the list, so it's really just a common denominator
where most people will chip in. Some of us generally only do it this
way - so I think the emails may want to stay (perhaps move them to the
bottom, though?)
I'm fine with any sensible means of contact/info being listed, so go for it.
