Listed below are those who have made contributions to the Library Simplified - SimplyE open source code base or to SimplyE in general.

Committers Group


Committers have autonomous control over the code and are also the primary support team for SimplyE. The primary responsibilities of Committers are:

  • Maintain the public codebase
  • Review all code contributions/changes to ensure stability, etc
  • Merge/accept community code contributions
  • Help to resolve bugs or security issues within codebase
  • Help to provide ongoing support to community developers and users (via Slack)
  • Perform and manage new releases based on the roadmap.

Anyone may be nominated as a Committer by anyone else. Typically, nominations are made by existing Committers on the basis of sustained contribution to SimplyEe that indicates an ability to fulfill Committer responsibilities. Examples of such contribution are participation in discussions on mailing lists, Slack, IRC etc, participation in developer meetings, reporting bugs, help with testing/reviewing of code, and contribution of code via pull requests. A majority of current Committers must approve any nominations to the Committers group.

Emeritus Committers


Emeritus Committers are those who, for one reason or another, are no longer able to contribute code or time to SimplyE on a regular basis. They are still members of the Committers Group, but are currently acting in an advisory role within the Library Simplified development community. As such, while Emeritus Committers may participate in active votes, their votes are considered advisory in nature. 


We wish to recognize the contributions each of these individuals has made toSimplyE software over the years. Their code contributions and guidance have played an integral part in helping to make SimplyEe what it is today.

Committer Discussions / Meetings


As much as possible, Committers ensure that all SimplyE technology decisions are transparent to the developer community. (The only exception is when security issues require us to resolve them before they are publicly reported)

  • All Developer Meetings are open to anyone to attend. The meeting minutes are automatically logged and publicly available.
  • Technology discussions take place in the following places:
    • Weekly developer meetings

    • GitHub (When discussion is related to a specific GitHub pull request)
    • Occasionally on the Wiki itself, if a feature/change is just being proposed for early feedback.
