Agree with Yuri. We have not big amount of non-committer contributions into asyncio, and every non-trivial change requires very careful review.

There are not so many low-hanging fruits left in asyncio except improvements to its documentation. I'm a firm -1 to allow people to merge without Andrew's or my review at this point, almost no PRs are fine when they are submitted (including our own). There's a lot of complexity in asyncio which isn't immediately evident to people who are not working with its internals on a daily basis. > Now, people who report and submit asyncio PRs seem to do that just fine without subteams. Although it's rare to see people contributing more than once, but that's not an asyncio-specific pattern, I see it in every big and complex project I happen to contribute to. Even having a dedicated asyncio mailing list doesn't help to get people to contribute to asyncio more frequently. > Don't get me wrong, Andrew and I would certainly welcome any help we can get, but I'd be against running a public experiment with asyncio to see if 2 of us can handle the management of the new sub-teams idea. Unfortunately 2 of us just don't have capacity for that. > Please pick another project for your idea. Maybe we should try it for documentation first, where we have a lot of core devs who can help with PR reviews and management of "subteams". > Yury _________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers at python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
