gopass project governance

Overview

The gopass project uses a governance model commonly described as Benevolent Dictator For Life (BDFL). This document outlines our understanding of what this means. It is derived from the i3 window manager project governance.

Roles

user: anyone who interacts with the gopass project
core contributor: a handful of people who have contributed significantly to the project by any means (issue triage, support, documentation, code, etc.). Core contributors are recognizable via GitHub’s “Member” badge.
Benevolent Dictator For Life (BDFL): a single individual who makes decisions when consensus cannot be reached. gopass’s current BDFL is @dominikschulz.

Decision making process

In general, we try to reach consensus in discussions. In case consensus cannot be reached, the BDFL makes a decision.

Contribution process

Please see CONTRIBUTING.
