We develop userver framework and take care of our users. We want userver to be available on as much platforms, OSes and distros as possible. It is quite difficult to maintain such complex product as userver working in any environment. It is a difficult engineer problem, but also it is often difficult or impossible to test userver on the target platform because of absent software/hardware.
That's why there are userver distro package maintainers! That's the community role which is responsible for maintaining userver buildable and working in a specific environment.
A maintainer should (where possible): 1) keep build dependencies list in scripts/docs/en/deps/ for the distro up-to-date 2) watch for new distro version releases and create new dependency files in scripts/docs/en/deps soon after release 3) cleanup EOL (end of life) distro versions dependency files 4) maintain CI setup in .github/workflows in "green" state
The maintainer is a community role which is not paid, but is a honorable one. You will get a "distro maintainer" label in official userver telegram channels.
Currently we're looking for maintainers for the following OSes/distros:
1) MacOS 2) Fedora 3) Debian 4) ArchLinux 5) Gentoo 6) FreeBSD 7) Conan package
The list is not complete, you may suggest your own distro to maintain.
