Hi
I've been discussing with some devrel members in the past about gentoo/user
and gentoo/contributor cloaks. I though (and it was not only me) that
gentoo/contributor cloaks are given to ATs and HTs only, so I wanted to give
gentoo/user cloaks to some people that do various stuff apart from writing code
(stuff like representing gentoo in conferences, give support to others in
gentoo localized IRC channels, translate, promote the distro, etc). I've been
told though that devrel doesn't provide gentoo/user cloaks any more, and what
could be done is to give gentoo/contributor cloaks to someone if a developer
can vouch for him. There is no official policy though, Jorge would start a
discussion but never did, so I'm sending this mail with his approval, to start
a discussion and finally set a policy.
My opinion is that gentoo/contributor cloaks are very important to be given to
users. Especially amongst greek community many people like the idea of getting
a gentoo cloak. But devrel has to keep a list of those people (plus the
developer who vouched for them), possibly somewhere under the projspace (I
believe it could be public, yes).
I hope we have a final decision soon, as I don't think it is an easy to solve
task.

makes sense. just add some simple xml/text file to the gentoo/xml/proj/...
space like herds.xml. then the cloak list can be automated from that.

Keeping a list and periodically going through it seems fine to me. Are
you or someone else interested in joining devrel to get this implemented
and maintained? The policy should probably be written as a GLEP and I
can help with that but until GSoC is over I am pretty much fully booked
for Gentoo time so I would like to avoid championing it at this point.

speaking of that, Gentoo GSoC cloaks for people who complete GSoC would be cool

Not interested in joining devrel, sorry, but I could start writing the GLEP.
Is there an existing one about cloaks that we could improve, or start from
scratch?

I am not aware of any of the existing GLEPs covering the matter so from
scratch is probably required. For the GLEP I think it's enough if we
keep things simple and just list the conditions for getting and keeping
each type of cloak and the process of getting requesting a cloak.

Why should this be a GLEP? Seems like it should be covered by either
devrel or userrel, no need for the council to get involved as it's not a
global issue.

I think cloaks are a project wide issue. If you think it's best for
devrel to handle it on our own then I suggest we have a council vote
saying that or I can try to get a GLEP for devrel done and include it in
there for responsibilities.

Yes this makes sense. This fits better to userrel project[1] than the
devrel one. I am not sure of the actual status for this project though.
Besides that, is there a way to retrieve the current list of
gentoo/{contributor,user} cloaks somehow? We can use a table in userrel
project page like this one
<user> - <email> - <cloak> - <developer who requested the cloak> - <reason>
[1]http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/userrel/

After the policies have been figured out I can maintain this; I think it's a
very good idea to make contributor cloaks available to eager supporters.

Are you sure this issue falls under the devrel's umbrella? Seems more
appropriate for userrel. Regarding the GLEP for devrel, are you talking
about this?

Merging userrel to devrel has been my and Jorge's agenda for quite a
while now.

Yes we could vote on that verbatim too but it would be more beneficial
to do check if something should be changed while at it.

in the past, we made Gentoo e-mail forward rewards a Council issue as
the project in general couldnt agree on it, and they (being elected
representation to decided project-wide issues) finished it off.
in this case, i dont see anyone who doesnt want this to happen, so we
can probably delegate it to userrel, have them formulate a plan (seems
like we've got all the pieces already), and then just post the result
here for all to review.

I am sorry but my attempt to bring this to the Council did not succeed.
- From what I gathered, group-contacts alone are responsible to take care
of that which brings us back to square 0. Good luck with your effort to
move this forward ;)
