Dear Apache Doris Community, I am writing to propose the introduction of Maintainer Review for some core modules in Apache Doris. Background
Apache Doris has grown into a powerful, complex, and large-scale project. With the continuous growth of the codebase, it has become increasingly difficult to maintain and manage. Proposal To address the above issues, I propose to introduce Maintainer Review for some core modules in Apache Doris. This means that code can only be merged into these modules after it has been reviewed and approved by the maintainer of the module. Benefits Introducing Maintainer Review can bring the following benefits: Improve code quality Ensure consistent code style Strengthen control over core modules Reduce the workload of maintainers Implementation Plan We can include the following modules in the scope of Maintainer Review: Planner Storage Catalog For other modules, we can gradually introduce Maintainer Review as needed. Conclusion I believe that introducing Maintainer Review will help to improve the code quality and maintenance efficiency of Apache Doris. I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions. Additional arguments: Introducing Maintainer Review can help us better follow Apache's code submission guidelines. Maintainer Review can help us discover and fix code defects faster. Maintainer Review can help us better Apache Doris' code. I believe that by introducing Maintainer Review, we can make Apache Doris a more powerful, reliable, and maintainable project. Addressing concerns: Maintainer unavailability: We can establish a secondary maintainer or a backup plan for each module to address the situation when the maintainer is unavailable. Maintainer selection: We can call on PMC members and committers in the community to take on the role of maintainers. They have a deep understanding of the code and are familiar with the development process. Call to action: I encourage all community members to discuss this proposal and share their thoughts. We can work together to make Apache Doris a better project. Thank you! BW!
