Slightly different to our usual "nominate a new commiter" process, but
I'm wondering if we need to appoint a new owner on our GitHub
organisation?
Currently, only Dominic and Ohad are owners, and they are both
frequently busy with other things, which leads to some delays when
adding in new repos or moving things about. 2 people is also a fairly
high bus factor. I think it's time we added a third name to the owners
we don't have an official process for this, but I'm treating like
commit access, so here's a nomination email.
Obviously, this is mainly a role for maintenance - creating/forking
repos, moving them, creating new teams, etc. rather than about merging
code. I think a we have a few people that would be a good fit - my
suggestion would be Eric Helms. He's experienced both in our structure
& in GitHub-y stuff, and is in a different timezone, which helps if
something comes up out of European hours.

+1 to Eric. I'll also agree with Tomer that we can reduce the bus factor
even further.

Well, how about our fearless community leader?
Makes sense to me that managing the community includes the github repos
when needed - adding maintainers, migrating repos etc.
I nominate Greg Sutcliffe to be another owner of the git org as he is
available in European times.
Greg has been an active member, contributor and maintainer for quite a few
years now and should have no problem helping out with these tasks.

+1 too.
(also to Eric's ownership, there were just too many +1s I don't think
mine would've made any difference)
Hello,
It has been a week, a bunch of +1s and no -1 here or in private.
Ohad - please add Greg to the repo owners.
