On August 12th we will be removing the Maintainers team from the GatsbyJS organization on GitHub. All members of this team, as well as all future Gatsby community contributors, will have their status set as “Outside Collaborators” on the GatsbyJS monorepo. All essential capabilities — forking the repo, submitting issues and PRs, etc. — will still be open for community members. However, a few capabilities previously held by organization members — deleting or editing other contributors’ PRs, issues, and comments; creating branches in the monorepo; requesting PR reviews through GitHub — will no longer be available.
These changes will ultimately help the Core team manage Gatsby’s ecosystem more efficiently and sustainably. It will also help us ensure that the community is an inclusive space with fewer opportunities for community members to take actions that could accidentally or intentionally violate our Code of Conduct.
