Requirements

• Reviewer for at least 3 months (as of the membership meeting date)
• Reviewer for or author of at least 10 substantial PRs to the codebase
  • author: docs: howto configure clusters with iam
    Substantial docs PR which involved working with several folks in the community to validate.
  • author: fix: surface source not permitted errors
    Major UX improvement requiring in-depth understanding of the relationships between multiple Argo CD components.
  • author: fix: ensure certificate gets updated on reload
    This fixed a longstanding, difficult-to-reproduce bug which, even though it required only a one-line fix, was challenging to track down and required a strong understanding of Argo CD's runtime behavior.
  • author: feat: add deny sources
    This is a very important security feature.
  • author: feat: enable metadata to be set on namespaces
    This was one of the most-requested features at the time. Implementation required a lot of rounds of discussion with @leoluz, since it's a really challenging problem. Blake's collaborative spirit shined here. He's continued to support the feature since it was merged.
  • author: feat: add permitOnlyProjectScopedClusters
    A very important security enhancement.
  • author: feat: add deny destinations for projects
    Another crucial security enhancement.
  • author: feat: allow interpolation of cluster generator values
    This feature served as a template for a lot more dynamic behavior in ApplicationSet. Blake set a secure standard by guarding against billion-laughs attacks.
  • reviewer: fix: setting spec.SyncPolicy crashes 'argocd appset get' output
    Doing what a maintainer should do, asking for tests!
  • reviewer: docs: Cluster overview page
    Very thorough review of a docs PR.
