Who owns Windows?

[Brad Fitzpatrick]

Does anybody on the Go team own Windows yet? :)

https://dev.golang.org/owners suggests no. Or suggests it's me & Alex Brainman. (neither at Google with access to push any Gerrit buttons these days)

I see https://github.com/orgs/golang/teams/windows includes Quim ("Developer at Microsoft"), so maybe Quim? :)

In any case, who should review stuff like https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/452497 ?

[Quim Muntal]

I don't have push access either, but will take a look at this CL later today.

We did have someone on the Go team at Google specifically in charge of the Windows port, but they left and we don't have a replacement at the moment. Various of us have been doing Windows-related maintenance and fixes, especially around the builders, so it's not abandoned, but we don't have a real expert. 

If you or Alex Brainman or anyone else +2 a Windows CL and run TryBots successfully, it should appear in https://go.dev/s/needs-review, and then someone here at Google will skim and +1 it as part of the weekly open source duties rotation. That CL doesn't have the TryBots passing yet. The rebase+rerun helped but it looks like maybe the 386 port has a real problem.

Best,

Russ

Hello Brad,

I just reviewed https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/452497 .

The change LGTM after Aaron fixes new test on 386.
