As most team members do not work full time on the Turing Way, it might take some time until your query or contribution is addressed - especially if expert knowledge is needed. The core project team will have weekly update meetings on Wednesdays from 2-4 pm either on slack or as videocalls on zoom.
- Once completed, issues should be closed immediately. By adding closes #issue or something similar in a comment on a pull request, merging the pull request will close the issue automatically.
- The team will have a weekly catch up to go triage on open issues, update the project board and agree on priorities for the next week.
- Pull requests should be reviewed in a timely manner.
- When reviewing a pull request, please do not use the "request a change" function but comment on the change or make a pull request to the file that should be merged.
All The Turing Way team members commit to
- making the implicit explicit by documenting their work
- dedicating time to update contribution guidelines and other core documents needed to facilitate collaboration
- feed back on issues in open source software used throughout the Turing Way by opening an issue in those open source packages and trying to fix them (including documentation)
