Hacking Launchpad

These pages describe processes and guidelines for developing the software that runs Launchpad. It includes tips for coders and tips for reviewers, as well as public meeting notes, and anything else that is useful to people actually writing and reviewing Launchpad code. Start here if you like to get your hands dirty.

Developer resources

Reviewer resources

No changes to Launchpad can land without being reviewed and approved by at least one other person. Our goal is for every Launchpad developer to also be a reviewer, and to that end we have a mentoring process to initiate new developers onto the review team. Every "mentat" (new reviewer) is assigned a mentor (experienced reviewer) to help guide them through the process. Mentats do the reviews and the mentor reviews the mentat's review. When the mentor and review team lead agree that the mentat is ready to leave the nest, the mentat is graduated and becomes a full-fledged reviewer.

Here is the current list of reviewers. No mentor is listed if the person is a graduated reviewer. OCR is the time slot that the reviewer is on-call.

We also conduct two weekly reviewer meetings on a public IRC channel. One meeting is for Antipodeans, and the other is for Europeans and Americans.
