Maybe I should have added here: It's a SIG that is governed by the EPEL
Steering Committee.
It is still very unclear to me who the SIG members are.
I'd say it's round about: If you want to become a member of a SIG then
you add your name to the page in the wiki; if you want to get out you
remove your name. That afaics how it works/worked in many Fedora SIGs
and I see no reason why EPEL should be different.
Both a project
and a SIG should know who their members are, but in the case of EPEL it
is far from being clear. Indeed, for the Packaging project, members are
more or less all the packagers, while it is not clear if the EPEL SIG
members are all the EPEL maintainers + people interested in EPEL
infrastructure + EPEL steering commitee, or if it is something else
(like, for example, the list on
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/SIG).
I'd say it are people that have a eneral interest in EPEL and want to
keep it running and help to improve it.
