Aperture has an on-call engineer that rotates weekly who is responsible for updates as well as triaging OSPRs. Reviews sometimes may be started by one engineer and completed by another if the on-call rotates. Aperture will ensure that all author comments are responded to within the week.
We will not use the Contributors board (as described in Cumulative Maintainer Responsibilities) at this stage, but would be amenable to using a future incarnation of it, and are in conversation with other maintainers about what that could look like.
We will check the Maintainer Review tab of a designated GH project board and review PRs that appear here. Filter requirements for these PRs:
Must be added to the GH board (this is done automatically for OSPRs in repos we maintain, based on the open-source-contribution label)
Must have the maintainer-attention-needed label
Must not have the waiting-on-author label
Must not be a draft PR
Regular Maintenance
We will merge update PRs weekly unless substantial work is required, in which case we will pin the dependency and plan the work accordingly. We are amenable to tracking these updates on a public GH board if a pattern is agreed upon by Axim. We believe this upgrade process will ensure that most security fixes get merged in a week but some may get pinned.
