Analytics Instrumentation is not maintaining repo's specific to its tech stack
Problem
The Snowplow Micro Config repo is only important in the context of the usage of Snowplow for Analytics Instrumentation, but currently there are no maintainers from our group listed for this repo as we discovered in gitlab-org/snowplow-micro-configuration!2 (comment 1503615709). The same is actually true for https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/iglu.
Current maintainers are often not or no longer familiar with how these repositories are used.
Desired Outcome
Ideally, Analytics Instrumentation takes ownership of both repositories and multiple developers from the group are listed as maintainers for both.
Potential Solutions
-
Someone from our group takes over ownership for the Repo
-
Existing groupanalytics instrumentation developers, who should be familiar with both repo and in the case of
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/iglu have at least one accepted MR on the project become maintainer.
-
We add reviewer roulette and according maintainer roles in the team-member *.yml files to both repositories to make it easier for people to find a maintainer to merge an MR.
