RULES FOR MAINTAINERS

  • Please respect the guidelines for writing issues.

  • Be nice and patient.

  • When a volunteer say they are interested, assign them to the issue. (@LucyMcGowan not sure it'd never happen but what would happen if several people wanted to contributed? the first one would be assigned? ) (and do we want to create an Assigned label for making scraping free Beginner issues easier?)

  • When the issue get solved, ask the volunteer to add themselves as ctb in DESCRIPTION.

  • Be clear about your availability. (e.g. if you usually answer messages within a few days or longer)

  • Have fun!

Ohh an assigned label would be great - right now it checks if the issue is open, but that's a good point someone could have already been assigned. Where would be keep these rules for maintainers to reference?

That's a good question 😀 Do we need a sort of webpage or repo for the project instructions?
