List maintainers for this lesson somewhere in the repository? about shell-novice HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi yes, I am still willing to maintain, just been busy recently and haven't been able to keep up with the firehose of SWC emails.

No worries. A month of quiet time is rarely going to be a big deal,
but it may be worth tapping someone as interim maintainer if you get
swamped again.

Well, that was kinda the point of having the co-maintainer...

Thanks for the callout @wking and @gdevenyi - I just moved and started a new job and didn't communicate with @gdevenyi or anyone else about making sure that things were covered. That's on me, and I apologize.

Congrats, and good luck :). Anyhow, it sounds like this was just a
fluke of business compounded by communication issues. It's unlikely
to happen again going forward, especially if we keep each other up to
date (or poke each other if things go suspiciously quiet ;).

I'd still like a local CONTRIBUTING.md listing maintainers so folks
who are new to this lesson know who to poke.

I like the idea - could we just add it to the README?

We'll want something in CONTRIBUTING.md [1], and I think an
introduction to the maintainers is more contributor-focused than
user-focused (which is who I see as the README audience). It's a
fuzzy boundary though, and “users” and “contributors” aren't disjoint
sets, so I'm ok with it landing in the README. We may want to ask on
lesson-template to get a broader consensus.

You're right, it's more appropriate in CONTRIBUTING.md, I just want us to be as easily found as possible. :) Maintainers listed in CONTRIBUTING.md and then a link to CONTRIBUTING from the README sounds like a good compromise to me.

I'll open an issue on lesson-template for more input...
