They assume many roles required to achieve the project's goals, -especially those that require a high level of trust. They make the decisions -that shape the future of the project. - -Core team members are expected to act as role models for the community and -custodians of the project, on behalf of the community and all those who rely -on Django. - -They will intervene, where necessary, in online discussions or at official -Django events on the rare occasions that a situation arises that requires -intervention. - -They have authority over the Django Project infrastructure, including the -Django Project website itself, the Django GitHub organization and -repositories, the Trac bug tracker, the mailing lists, IRC channels, etc. - -Prerogatives ------------- - -Core team members may participate in formal votes, typically to nominate new -team members and to elect the technical board. - -Some contributions don't require commit access. Depending on the reasons why a -contributor joins the team, they may or may not have commit permissions to the -Django code repository. - -However, should the need arise, any team member may ask for commit access by -writing to the core team's mailing list. Access will be granted unless the -person withdraws their request or the technical board vetoes the proposal. - -Core team members who have commit access are referred to as "committers" or -"core developers". - -Other permissions, such as access to the servers, are granted to those who -need them through the same process. - -Membership ----------- - -`Django team members `_ -demonstrate: - -- a good grasp of the philosophy of the Django Project -- a solid track record of being constructive and helpful -- significant contributions to the project's goals, in any form -- willingness to dedicate some time to improving Django - -As the project matures, contributions go way beyond code.

However, in order to provide -the general public with a reasonable idea of how many people maintain Django, -core team members who have stopped contributing are encouraged to declare -themselves as "past team members". Those who haven't made any non-trivial -contribution in two years may be asked to move themselves to this category, -and moved there if they don't respond.
