There's also a couple of other people who play special roles in the GDB
community, separately from the patch process:
- - The GDB Steering Committee.
+ - The Official FSF-appointed GDB Maintainers.
- These are the official (FSF-appointed) maintainers of GDB. They have
- final and overriding authority for all GDB-related decisions, including
- anything described in this file. The committee is not generally
- involved in day-to-day development (although its members may be, as
- individuals).
+ These maintainers are the ones who take the overall responsibility
+ for GDB, as a package of the GNU project. Other GDB contributors
+ work under the official maintainers' supervision. They have final
+ and overriding authority for all GDB-related decisions, including
+ anything described in this file. As individuals, they may or not
+ be generally involved in day-to-day development.
- The Release Manager.
Most changes to the list of maintainers in this file are handled by
consensus among the global maintainers and any other involved parties.
In cases where consensus can not be reached, the global maintainers may
-ask the Steering Committee for a final decision.
+ask the official FSF-appointed GDB maintainers for a final decision.
The Obvious Fix Rule
is correction of a typo or bad English usage.
