This repository contains community related content that applies to all repositories in the CSI org. This page documents how to participate in the community.
All developers of CSI drivers should join https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/container-storage-interface-drivers-announce to remain informed about changes to CSI or cluster orchestrators (like Kubernetes) that may affect existing CSI drivers.
The Container Storage Interface (CSI) Community aims to be open, transparent, inclusive, and promote the best ideas. Contributions are welcome and encouraged from everyone.
If there are issues or changes you would like to see, feel free to open an issue or send out a PR in the appropriate repo (e.g. https://github.com/container-storage-interface/spec/issues). The review and approval process is defined in the governance doc.
A CSI Community meeting is held every two weeks. Everyone is welcome to participate.

The governance doc defines the role of approvers.
Communities attempting to define industry standards are susceptible to conflict between vendors or becoming primarily focused on a single vendor. The governance doc for this project limits membership of approvers to representatives of the COs. In order to be successful, CSI must remain vendor neutral and serve the needs of end users.
Ideas, however, should be generated, discussed, debated, and consensus achieved publicly within the community. Approvers should only have to step in or "overrule" when absolutely necessary (a vendor is clearly pushing a singularly beneficial agenda, two storage vendors strongly disagree, etc.).
A CSI Approvers Group meeting is held every two weeks. Attendance is limited to the approvers as defined in the governance doc.
