Hi Gabriel,
The openstack-stable-maint team is responsible for the stable/folsom
branch.
That team's job is really to evaluate the risk/benefit of a given
backported patch and understand the "safe source of fixes for
high-impact, user-visible issues" policy documented here:
http://wiki.openstack.org/StableBranch
During Essex, I added all the PTLs to the team since they have to make
similar tradeoffs when backporting to the milestone-proposed branch.
Since you've taken over from Devin as Horizon PTL, I figure it makes
sense to add you in place of Devin.
So, basically - keep an eye out for changes proposed to stable/folsom
and then:
* evaluate risk of a patch
* consider how severe the issue is for users
* check that it's already fixed on master
Please add a little comment indicating whether a change meets those
criteria when adding your +/-2
Also, stable/folsom reviews need 2 +2s from stable-maint members unless
the person proposing the backport is also a stable-maint member.
Cheers,
Mark.
