Things you should do if you are a Clojure Contrib committer:<ul><li>maintain your library and respond to questions/issues that arise.</li><li>do your work on the master branch, or (if you are working on a significant chunk you want to keep temporarily separate) on a feature-specific branch that you create yourself.</li><li>use the Maven Release option on build.clojure.org to make releases.</li><li>coordinate with other committers before making changes to their libraries.</li><li>accept contributions from others only if they have signed the CA (see <a href="http://clojure.org/contributing">http://clojure.org/contributing</a> for the list) and if they submit a patch. </li></ul>Things to avoid:<ul><li>please do not push to the release branches (names like 1.2.x). The Clojure/core team uses these to make the official, tested release.</li><li>do not take non-contributor patches.</li><li>please do not take pull requests from contributors. Patches only. Yes, it is inconvenient. Sorry.</li><li>do not change the version number in pom.xml - use the Maven Release process mentioned above.</li><li>do not make a 1.0.0 release without full review and approval from Clojure/core!</li></ul>Here's the process outline for what it takes to become a committer:<ul><li>Get your CA on file</li><li>Join the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/clojure-dev">clojure-dev mailing list</a></li><li>Create a JIRA account</li><li>Create a Confluence account as well if necessary (with the same login details; in theory they are linked and creating one should create the other but it practice it doesn't seem to work all the time)</li><li>Let Clojure/core know your github username and JIRA username so they can set up the correct permissions</li><li>Clojure/core need to create your account on build.clojure.org as well - see below</li></ul>Setting up a new contrib project:<ul><li>Create a new GitHub repo (requires Clojure organization admin privileges):<ul><li>Specify project name (must be approved by Clojure/core)</li><li>Specify description</li><li>Team: Contrib Commit</li><li>Add Post-Receive URL Service Hook: <a href="http://infolace.dnsalias.net:8080/github-post">http://infolace.dnsalias.net:8080/github-post</a> (for autodoc)</li><li>Disable Issues tab</li></ul></li><li>Create a new JIRA project (requires JIRA admin privileges):<ul><li>Specify name (same as GitHub project name)</li><li>Specify key (approved by Clojure/core, derived from project name)</li><li>Specify project lead's JIRA account</li></ul></li><li>Setting up builds (requires Hudson admin privileges, except step 2):<ul><li>Create Hudson user account for authors</li><li>Edit ci_data.clj in the build.ci repo add the new project / update authors (so they can run builds / cut releases)</li><li>Run build.ci Hudson job</li><li>Force Hudson to reload its configuration files</li></ul></li></ul>
