>From the meeting notes: mbrubeck: Module owner is two things. 1: someone who can make decisions. 2: someone who can determine who the peers are and when to pass on module ownership. Sometimes those are different people, etc. azita: Is it usual to have more than two? Seems confusing. Or is that something that happens? jdm: For some of the larger modules, yes. Or when you have people who are sharing the role in different aspects. mbrubeck: Some parts of gecko (ipc & indexdb) have three.
>From context, it sounds like you are talking about module owners. I was >curious, so I looked over the Core module owner list ( >https://wiki.mozilla.org/Modules/Core ), and there are no modules with three >owners. There are a handful that have two: Content Security Device Storage DOM Graphics I18N Library NSPR PDF security Tamarin (...) JS Marionette Harness and Tools XBL Note that Layout and the JS engine each only have one, though in the case of the JS engine, the JITs have been split into their own module. So even for larger modules it isn't too common to have multiple owners. Something like Servo might be a little odd, because it is such a broad and experimental project. Anyways, my apologies if the notes didn't convey the context properly or I misunderstood.
