CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@evan that core maintainers must write more than 0% of the code.

I'm being unnecessarily sassy about it, but I subscribe to a software development lifecycle where writing as little code as possible (but no less) is a virtue.

If a project maintainer _merely_ maintains scope, plans release timelines, manages technical contributors, writes comms and documentation, enforces quality standards... that's plenty of software development.

Or from another perspective, a healthy project should still be viable if they lose core maintainers for whatever reason. If there's only one person who could possibly maintain part of the project that's a red flag.

@evan I reject the premise of the poll.

I'd like core maintainers to supply project direction and consistent purpose.

@inthehands If you wish to discover your inner dad, you must be hungry.

Focus on the hunger and listen carefully. Your inner Dad will reveal himself:

Hi hungry, I'm Dad!
