## Motivation
The goal of the team is to help other people to contribute to Nix.
The team's main responsibility is to set a direction for the development of Nix and ensure that the code is in good shape.
We aim to achieve this by improving the contributor experience and attracting more maintainers – that is, by helping other people contributing to Nix and eventually taking responsibility – in order to scale the development process to match users' needs.
### Objectives
- It is obvious what is worthwhile to work on.
- It is easy to find the right place in the code to make a change.
- It is clear what is expected of a pull request.
- It is predictable how to get a change merged and released.
### Tasks
- Establish, communicate, and maintain a technical roadmap
- Improve documentation targeted at contributors
- Record architecture and design decisions
- Elaborate contribution guides and abide to them
- Define and assert quality criteria for contributions
- Maintain the issue tracker and triage pull requests
- Help contributors succeed with pull requests that address roadmap milestones
- Manage the release lifecycle
- Regularly publish reports on work done
- Engage with third parties in the interest of the project
- Ensure the required maintainer capacity for all of the above
