## Becoming a Collaborator

Collaborators are committers who have been given write access to all repositories in the
organization. This status recognizes long-term contributors who have demonstrated sustained
and valuable participation across the project. Collaborators work alongside project captains
to help maintain and advance the project. Like committers, collaborators are expected to
follow the same contribution policies, including sending pull requests, going through
proper review, and having other committers merge their pull requests.

Any TC member can nominate a committer to become a collaborator. The nomination will be
subject to a 2-week hold time to allow for comment and/or dissent. If no objections are
raised during this period, the nominee will be granted collaborator status.

## TC Process

The TC uses a "consensus seeking" process for issues that are escalated to the TC.
