SConsDevelopers
This page currently serves as a draft for delegating different SCons responsibilities to different parties. If you want to volunteer to do something, simply add a task and assign yourself to it. :)
Hopefully there eventually will be a sizable amount of tasks, and I feel the next step would be to make the list of components more "official" by making them "Categories" on the tigris.org issue tracker. This way almost anyone can just come in on their lunch break and assign a few bugs to the proper parties.
The following table describes the different roles a contributor the SCons project may have. [NOTE: Perhaps a role like tigris.org's "observer" would be helpful?]
Role | Description | Responsibilities |
---|---|---|
Developer | Writes code under his/her control | Checking scons-dev mailing list |

Submitting to his/her QA contact for testing | ||
QA | Tests code under his/her control | Checking scons-user mailing list to understand user problems |

The following table describes some of the different duties a contributor to the SCons project may have. One person may have more than one duty; one duty may be shared among several people.

Components come in two forms:
- literal: SCons Tool name (e.g., Qt, referring to the Qt Tool)
- figurative: generic name (e.g. Core, referring to SCons internals) Sufficiently large Components can be further divided into Subcomponents, but it is not necessary.
["Affected files" column should be deleted; "Description" and "Notes" should be merged into one column.]
