ARIA Editors

Shared acknowledgements file vs multiple sub-groups

Propose making acknowledgements a set of includes for sub-sections, rather than one big one

so each spec can have its own

but we can all share the parts that are relevant, and add other parts

<joanie> explicit +1 from me

<no real objections>

all specs need the funding one

many would use the WG one

many would use their own as well, for TF, heavy contributors, etc.

Biblio.js changes

Joanie cleaned up biblio.js

to remove stuff redundant with Specref

and alias references we´ve been using, to ones known to Specref

which makes them reference a particular version, usually the latest

JD recommends using versioned references in general

we should clean up the references to implement that in each spec

TS notes some specs have unversioned references and it´s useful to keep up to date

but that can result in links going out of date

on flip side, it´s easy to forget to update versioned references, would need a practice of checking for updates periodically

you can check if your references come from Specref by commenting out the localbiblio line in the respec config

which will let you know if errors happen

ultimately may not need localbiblio at all except for publishing

or temp references that you plan to request get added to specref

can send pull request to specref, or ask Joanie to

Stale branches in ARIA repo

https://github.com/w3c/aria/branches

see if there are any branches you wanted to keep, migrate another repo

otherwise they´ll disappear when Joanie and I clean up

master is the only branch currently migrated to other repos

Editors, authors, platform maintainers, other credits

Editors are people who literally make the spec work

authors contribute substantial content

platform maintainers are authors for AAMs

after we split the acknowledements file, could have custom sub-sections to credit whomever you want

including heavy contributors, commenters, etc.

For non-AAMs, we should increase use of the authors credit as well

(MC will need to tweak the script to not change ¨authors¨ to ¨platform maintainers¨ in non-AAMs, but easy enough to do)

may not need to use the WG participants include, if using TF participants instead or something

Protected branches and options

master, gh-pages, and stable branches are protected in most repos

only editors can push to protected branches, other contributors can work in other branches and request merge

also options to require status checks pass, pull request reviews

but not using right now, can if you want to

Repo manager and pr-preview

deferred

Using projects for workflow
