Team
The Apache Answer team works on the core functionality, plugins, as well as the documentation website. Current members of the team are listed in alphabetical order below.
Podling PMC
Each Podling Project Management Committee (PPMC) helps its Podling learn how to govern itself. It works like a PMC but reports to the Incubator PMC instead of to the ASF Board. Initially, it is composed of the Podling’s mentors and the initial committers. The PPMC is directly responsible for the oversight of the podling, and it also decides who to add as a PPMC member.
Committer
Committers have read-write access to the code repository, signed the CLA, and use an @apache.org email. They can patch code or docs, with approval from the PMC. There's no timeline or specific requirement to become a committer, but active contributors are strong candidates. As a committer, you shape the project's future by reviewing and merging code, testing release candidates, participating in discussions, and contributing in various ways. Active contributors may be invited to join the PMC.
Contributor
Becoming a contributor means you are interested in and contribute to the project, not just code. In Answer, there are ways of contribution, and you can find out more here. As long as you contribute to the Answer project, you are a recognized Answer Contributor. If you become a valuable contributor to the project, the Project Management Committee (PMC) may invite you to become a Committer.
