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.
