Thread: Clearly link Contributors pages
Hi, Attached is a patch to clearly link the three different pages related to recognized Postgres contributors: the Contributors list [1], the Recognized Contributors Policy page [2], and the Contributors Committee governance page [3]. The Contributors Committee proposes doing this to make it more clear that contributors may be nominated by contacting us and to make the contributor criteria more discoverable from the contributors list page. I've included one change that is dependent on the request described in Christoph's email [4] happening first. - Melanie [1] https://www.postgresql.org/community/contributors/ [2] https://www.postgresql.org/about/policies/contributors/ [3] https://www.postgresql.org/about/governance/contributors/ [4] https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/ZrYT4MPcoIjcVBTc%40msg.df7cb.de

Generally LGTM, just a few minor nits to match pgweb styling: + <a href="about/governance/contributors/">Contributors Committee</a> at should be + <a href="/about/governance/contributors/">Contributors Committee</a> at (and the forward slashes in the other hrefs) Thanks!

Hi, Wouldn't it make sense to also link this list: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/release-16.html#RELEASE-16-ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I'm sure I'm not the only one who would appreciate that.

I think these suggest that contributions need to be continued for multiple years, not single year. I maybe wrong but that's my impression. Best reagards, -- Tatsuo Ishii SRA OSS K.K.
