List of GitHub contacts per facility

[fabcor-maxiv]

Would it make sense to maintain in the repository a list of GitHub contacts per facility (and/or beamline), so that we know who to contact on GitHub?

• ESRF
  • software staff
    • @axelboc (web front-end)
• MAX IV
  • software staff
    • @fabcor-maxiv
    • @elmjag
  • beamline staff
    • @JieNanMAXIV
• Global Phasing
  • @rhfogh
• ELETTRA
  • software staff
    • @alessandro-olivo

For example when doing linting stuff I stumble once in a while on things that seem to be bugs, and I would like to know who I should @-ping here on GitHub.

Maybe a pinned issue or discussion? Not sure the wiki or documentation site is discoverable enough (and we marked it as deprecated).

I am fine with a pinned (and closed?) issue. Let's use this one?

[fabcor-maxiv]

I added some initial contacts in the first post and pinned the issue thread.

Everyone should feel free to add themselves and/or their colleagues and keep this up-to-date over time.

I also close this issue (because there is no actual issue), but obviously the discussion is still open and since it is pinned it is visible.

I'm not sure this would be the place to keep this sort of information. I think the contact for the beamline should go via the scientific correspondent which is noted in the MoU.

I think who the developers are is already widely known by the participants in the collaboration and the developers meetings. We also have the mailing list and the developers meeting to reach out to those developers. I think we will just end up with a list that is not really maintained and sort of tucked a way in an issue.
