  • PSC responsabilities
    Hi everyone,

    I was preparing this year Ranking of contributors and I am concerned on some information I found when crossing this data with PSCs.

    I found several PSCs that are not involved into their respective repositories. For example, I found a PSC team that has 5 members, 3 of them participated in 1% of the PR, on of them on the 15% and the last one on 98%. The repository was big (more than 400 PR on one year). In other examples, the PSC only participated in their team PRs.

    Even in my case, I think I need to improve my collaboration as a PSC.

    I think we need to improve this situation as a Community, otherwise, people will loose faith in the PSCs and how OCA works. Some ideas I can think about:

    - Control PSCs on big repositories (it is hard to set a proper KPI on small repos)
    - Demote PSCs that are not contributing properly according to this KPIs
    - Review this KPIs yearly
    - Split bigger PSCs in order to avoid too much work
    - Avoid people to be PSC of more than 3 big PSC Teams
    - Give PSCs some extra benefits (lower fees on OCA days, special t-shirts...)
    - Give PSCs recognition of their work (easy to say, hard to think about it)

    Maybe I am dramatic here, but I think it is important. WDYT? Shall we do something about it?

    Kind regards,
