As a MIT licensed open-source project, there are not legal obligations for the InvenTree project team or any contributor to provide support or maintenance. The software is provided "as-is" - without warranty of any kind.
|
|
However, the project team is committed to providing a reliable and [secure](../security.md) code base with predictable upgrade paths.
|
|
|
|
## Team organisation
|
|
|
|
There is no legal entity that governs the InvenTree project at this time.
|
|
The project is managed by a small team of volunteer developers, who are responsible for the ongoing development and maintenance of the software.
|
|
|
|
### Maintainer
|
|
|
|
InvenTree was started by and is run by SchrodingersGat, who is the maintainer of the project following the [BDFL model](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benevolent_dictator_for_life).
|
|
Releases are made by the maintainer, who is responsible for the overall direction of the project. Any directional decisions are at the sole discretion of the maintainer.
|
|
|
|
### Core Team
|
|
|
|
A number of developers are selected to join the `core team` to help with triage and review of issues and pull requests. Core team members are part of the @inventree/triage team on GitHub and might choose to make that association public. Team members might be listed on the website.
|
|
|
|
The core team has moderation, triage and review permissions on most repositories of the organisation. There is no requirement (or assumption) of effort spend on the project.
|
|
|
|
### Proofreaders
|
|
|
|
The InvenTree project is translated into a number of languages using a web translation tool that requires approval of submitted strings. Members of the community can apply to be elevated to the role of `proofreader` for a specific language.
|
|
Proofreaders are enabled to approve translations, at which point they are automatically proposed for inclusion in the code base.
|
|
|
|
A list of proofreaders is being maintained on [GitHub](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/discussions/9073)
|
|
|
|
## Write access to the code base
|
|
|
|
Write access to the code base is granted to a very small number of developers. In daily operations only the [maintainer](#maintainer) is expected to make changes to the master or stable branches.
|
|
|
|
To reduce the risk of losing the possibility to address security issues in a timely manner additional members are granted access.
|
|
|
|
The following users have write access to the code base at this time:
|
|
|
|
- [SchrodingersGat](https://github.com/SchrodingersGat)
|
|
- [matmair](https://github.com/matmair)
