[MapProxy-dev] MapProxy PSC, RFCs and GitHub PR

[Johannes Weskamm]

Hi,


To get things rolling again:

I personally agree on the PSC guidelines and have understood the
responsibilities.

Regarding Pull Requests and PSC voting: Maybe we can add a clarification
about the process to the PR template on github, so that the person that
creates the PR knows that this will be reviewed and voted before it may
get merged.

Voting itself could also happen on github.

In depth discussion about features / changes and their integration may
still happen on the mailinglist, but this is just an idea.

What do the others think?


Greetings,

Johannes
