Call for Contributors

[axelson]

In order to keep development of ElixirLS sustainable I believe that we need some more active contributors with commit privileges as well some people assisting with investigating and responding to issues.

In particular I am curious if @lukaszsamson and @msaraiva are interested.

[lukaszsamson]

Thanks for the invitation @axelson, I am interested.

[axelson]

Fantastic, invitation sent!

[jsmestad]

Definitely interested. I'll have more questions than answers initially, but I've lurked long enough I may as well participate where I can 😏

[msaraiva]

Hi @axelson!

In particular I am curious if @lukaszsamson and @msaraiva are interested.

I can certainly help with some of the issues, especially the ones directly related to ElxirSense. However, since I also maintain a few other opensource projects, I might not be as active as you expect. If that's ok for you, then sure :)

[axelson]

@jsmestad Thanks! That is very much appreciated and I've given you triage privileges and we can move to commit rights in time :)

@msaraiva Sent an invite. And I totally respect that and please don't feel pressured. But by having more people contributing we can spread the maintenance burden further :) so just help out where and when you can.

[kentbull]

I'm interested. I have a specific issue right now with frequent crashes due to elixir-editors/emacs-elixir#415 I'd like to see if I can help address that problem. If not then maybe some other low-hanging fruit that other people don't want to spend time on.

[axelson]

@kentbull thanks for the offer! Please start sending PR's and helping with issues :)

[kentbull]

@axelson any low hanging fruit you can think of that would be like a 'hello-world' contribution to help me get familiar with the workflow and review style?

[axelson]

@kentbull one good issue would be changing the code that was added in #299 to not need to check the Elixir version. Since now we formally only support Elixir 1.8.0+

[medikent]

@axelson Looks like I missed that one; someone else got to it first. Anything else look like a good option?

[lukaszsamson]

I'm going to close it to not pollute issues. If anyone is interested in contributing or joining the maintainers, please reach out
