Near the end of the review process for new guidelines produced by
the API-WG a guideline is "frozen" and presented for review by the
wider OpenStack community. At that time the people who have
self-identified as liaisons to the working group from the projects
that produce APIs are added as reviewers to the guideline.
That adding is managed by a JSON file that associates projects with
designated liaisons:
http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/api-wg/tree/doc/source/liaisons.json
It's been a while since that file has been updated, so there are
plenty of projects that are not represented at all and some projects
which are represented by people who have moved on. This means that
in some cases guidelines are being merged without being fully vetted
by the entire community.
If project members could provide up to date information for that
file, that would help ensure that guidelines are most effectively
verified before being published. Either submit a change to the file
or ask cdent, elmiko or edleafe in #openstack-sdks to do it for you.
Thanks!
