Gaining Commit Privileges
-------------------------

When you have been extended an official offer to become a Python core
developer, there are several things you and the person handling your onboarding
must do.

1. Find out who is handling your onboarding (your mentor should know who this
is; at worst ask the steering council)
2. Email the person handling your onboarding
3. The person onboarding you will ask you for various account details to record
them at https://github.com/python/voters/
4. They will ask what email address you would like to subscribe to
python-committers with
5. They will turn on various permissions based on the information you provided
in the previous steps
6. They will update the devguide to publicly list your team membership at
The steps to gaining commit privileges are:

1. A core developer starts a poll at https://discuss.python.org/c/committers/

- Open for 7 days
- Results shown upon close

2. The poll is announced on python-committers
3. Wait for the poll to close and see if the results confirm your membership
as per the voting results requied by PEP 13
4. The person who nominated you emails the steering council with your email
address and a request that the council either accept or reject the proposed
membership
5. Assuming the steering council does not object, a member of the council will
email you asking for:

- Account details as required by
https://github.com/python/voters/
- Your preferred email address to
subscribe to python-committers with
- A reminder about the Code of Conduct and to report issues to the PSF
Conduct WG

6. Once you have provided the pertinent details, your various new privileges
will be turned on
7. Your details will be added to https://github.com/python/voters/
8. They will update the devguide to publicly list your team membership at
:ref:`developers`
7. They will announce your membership to python-committers
9. An announcement email by the steering council member handling your new
membership will be sent to python-committers
