3We are looking to expand the stackage curator team!
5As a stackage curator you will help the community by curating and
6publishing the widely used nightly and LTS snapshots: Collections of
7packages that are guaranteed to play well together. All curators are
8volunteers.
10This is a great opportunity to contribute to the haskell community and get
11familiar with the tools of the trade! You will also be in regular
12contact with experienced community members.
14We don't have any prerequisites, but familiarity with any of Haskell,
15Cabal, Stack, Linux, Git, and Docker is a plus.
17We work in shifts of one week, which means you will be on duty every
186th week. Our suggestion is to pair you up with another curator to
19help out in the beginning.
21The workload is usually about 30 minutes per day, whenever you have
22time. The work consists of keeping the builds running on the build
23server, filing issues for packages needing updates when new releases
24occur, and closing resolved issues. The LTS snapshots are prepared
25once a week. All communication with package maintainers happen on
26github.
28We also have a curator slack channel where we help each other out.
30The current curator team consists of:
31* Adam Bergmark
32* Dan Burton
33* Jens Petersen
34* Luke Murphy
35* Michael Snoyman
37We onboarded Luke as the newest member a few months ago and this
38helped us iron out and document the process further.
40You can read the curator documentation here: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stackage/blob/master/CURATORS.md
