The Open edX Core Contributor Program is a program that grants specific types of access to Open edX community members to enable them to further the development and adoption of the Open edX platform. Rights and responsibilities vary from role to role, from the Committer role (whose members directly write and review code), to the various flavors of Non-Technical Contributors (whose members which are defined on the Core Contributor Role Definitions page. Core Contributors may variously help with translations, market the Open edX platform, serve as project managers, write code to advance the Open edX software, and more).
Core Contributors earn their designation by active participation in the Open edX community - writing code, serving on working groups, contributing high-quality translations, and many other ways. In general, people wishing to be Core Contributors need to show sustained, active performance in the role prior to being nominated as a Committer or NTCfor consideration in the Program. We call this the “3 Cs”: Commitment, Conduct, Caliber.
