WG-Creation-Request: WG Naming

[Stephen Augustus]

Hi kubefolx,

We've had several conversations in the past across various issues/pull requests/mailing threads about how we should name things. After all, naming is one of the hardest problems in computer science, right?
After speaking with a few Community members, we think the next step is to create a Working Group to improve how we handle naming across the project.

Some goals:

• Create a governance group to centralize naming conventions
• Provide naming guidance across the project
• Establish canonical policies and reviewer guidelines for naming
• Assist SIGs with implementing name changes
• Create tooling to prevent problematic naming from entering our repos (presubmits checks, etc.)
• Wider adoption (CNCF-level): Build comprehensive practices for reuse/adoption by other CNCF projects
  

Scope/Proposed Sponsors:

• Steering Committee
• SIG Contributor Experience
• SIG Docs
• SIG Architecture
  

Proposed Leads:

• Celeste Horgan, CNCF
• Zach Corleissen, Linux Foundation
• Stephen Augustus, VMware
  

The goals above are intentionally ambiguous to allow for further refinement.

We will not let excessive bikeshedding distract from our immediate goals: eliminating racist/non-inclusive language from the project.

Examples:

• Master/slave (including discussions on changing git default branch naming)
• Whitelist/blacklist

Steering Committee, SIG Contributor Experience, SIG Docs, and SIG Architecture --
Are you interested in sponsoring WG Naming?

-- Stephen / Celeste / Zach

+1 from me / SIG Docs sponsoring. A lot of action will result in documentation.

I'll add it to the Docs meeting agenda tomorrow.

Thanks for driving this forward!

Hi Stephen,

Speaking on behalf of Steering, we don't directly sponsor new working groups. We will review/approve when a PR is submitted with SIG sponsors.

Cheers,

Christoph

Hey kubefolx,

Given the general consensus across leads from SIG Arch, ContribEx, and Docs, as well as support from members of the Code of Conduct Committee, I've opened https://github.com/kubernetes/community/pull/4884 to formally request formation of the Naming Working Group.

Thanks to everyone that has voiced support both on- and off-list!

Steering --

This is ready for review.

-- Stephen

[Christoph Blecker]

Hi Stephen,

Following up on the mailing list so we have a record, Steering has reviewed the PR, and has unanimously approved the formation of this working group.

Cheers,

Christoph
