Roles

The seL4 Foundation defines the following roles for seL4 development.

Apart from Contributor, which anyone can be, you can become a member of any of these roles by decision (vote) of the Technical Steering Committee (TSC). You can nominate someone for a role by emailing the chair of the TSC.

• Contributor: Anyone who contributes code, documentation, issues, etc via pull requests or otherwise.

• Reviewer: People with technical experience and interest to approve reviews on pull requests, be assigned and maintain issues, but without full commit rights. They would typically be active Contributors already, but exceptions are possible. They become members of the seL4 GitHub org.

  The role does not confer membership or voting rights in the TSC.

  Current members are:

  • Christopher Guikema, Dornerworks
  • Jesse Millwood, Dornerworks
  • Benno Leslie, Breakaway Consulting

• Committer: People with direct write/push access to the repositories in the seL4 GitHub org. These are the people that can merge pull requests.

  The role does not automatically confer membership or voting rights in the TSC.
