security: highlight phab accounts; recommend phab for nominations
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit contains two mildly separate concepts.

First, sending out reviews for things like this is a bit of a
complicated endeavor, since the reviewer list is relatively long, and I
generally rely on prior CLs in this area to find an authoritative list.
Life's quite a bit easier if phab usernames are readily available on the
doc. So part 1 is making those available.

Second, it seems to me that, at the moment, Phabricator makes the most
sense for membership changes (incl. security group nominations). My
reasoning for this is detailed in the diff, and to some extent in
comment #1 of this bug
<https://bugs.chromium.org/p/llvm/issues/detail?id=12#c1>. This change
adds prose to recommend the use of Phabricator for nominations as a
result.

Criteria

Anyone who feels they meet these criteria can nominate themselves, or may be nominated by a third party such as an existing LLVM Security Group member. The nomination should state whether the nominee is nominated as an individual, researcher, or as a vendor contact. It should clearly describe the grounds for nomination.

*FUTURE*: where nomination occurs (mailing list, GitHub, etc), can be decided later. See `Discussion Medium`_ below.
For the moment, nominations are generally proposed, discussed, and voted on using Phabricator. An `example nomination is available here`_. The use of Phabricator helps keep membership discussions open, transparent, and easily accessible to LLVM developers in many ways. If, for any reason, a fully-world-readable nomination seems inappropriate, you may `open a new issue`_, and a discussion can be had about the best way to approach nomination, given the constraints that individuals are under.

Our recommended method of nomination may change as our `Discussion Medium`_ story evolves over time.
