Documentation Request Checklist

Overview

Surfacing internal discussions: MAINTAINERS.md has very loose verbiage around:

mocha/MAINTAINERS.md

Lines 93 to 95 in 185ae1e

Furthermore, a maintainer is a contributor who **contributes regularly**, or expresses a _desire to do so._ That could be every day--but it might be once a week, or even once a month.
Your boss doesn't work here; contribute as often as you wish.
We are all people with Real Lives, and for many of us, contributing to OSS is just a hobby!

What happens if someone doesn't contribute for more than a month? Months at a time? With or without warning? We'd like to have more clarity in the expectations.
