One thing to take into consideration. If they are not announced till |
| 18 |
first commit. How do other developers know to look out for such? What |
| 19 |
if they break something and the mentor does not catch? Then other |
| 20 |
developers just discover. Plus there is also who is this new person |
| 21 |
committing aspect. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I thought it was always traditional to announce as soon as they become |
| 24 |
a developer and could commit. Not till after they make their first |
| 25 |
commit. Which may be a surprise to others. |

Is this no announcement till after first commit documented in policy |
| 30 |
some where? I do not recall it to be such. |

It looks like per the format part of the bug comment is that the |
| 33 |
announcements go out. |
| 34 |
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Recruiters/Recruiting#For_setting_up |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Which looks like |
| 37 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=616280#c5 |
| 38 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620766#c3 |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Bot those also say |
| 41 |
Automatic: |
| 42 |
- gentoo-core |
| 43 |
- gentoo-dev-announcement |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Thus part of the confusion with policy, process, what ever. |
