Symfony Core Team¶
This document states the rules that govern the Symfony Core group. These rules are effective upon publication of this document and all Symfony Core members must adhere to said rules and protocol.
Core Organization¶
Symfony Core members are divided into three groups. Each member can only belong to one group at a time. The privileges granted to a group are automatically granted to all higher priority groups.
The Symfony Core groups, in descending order of priority, are as follows:
- Project Leader
- Elects members in any other group;
- Merges pull requests in all Symfony repositories.
- Mergers
- Merge pull requests for the component or components on which they have been granted privileges.
- Deciders
- Decide to merge or reject a pull request.

Core Membership Application¶
At present, new Symfony Core membership applications are not accepted.
Core Membership Revocation¶
A Symfony Core membership can be revoked for any of the following reasons:
- Refusal to follow the rules and policies stated in this document;
- Lack of activity for the past six months;
- Willful negligence or intent to harm the Symfony project;
- Upon decision of the Project Leader.
Should new Symfony Core memberships be accepted in the future, revoked members must wait at least 12 months before re-applying.
Code Development Rules¶
Symfony project development is based on pull requests proposed by any member of the Symfony community. Pull request acceptance or rejection is decided based on the votes cast by the Symfony Core members.
Pull Request Voting Policy¶
-1votes must always be justified by technical and objective reasons;+1votes do not require justification, unless there is at least one-1vote;- Core members can change their votes as many times as they desire during the course of a pull request discussion;
- Core members are not allowed to vote on their own pull requests.
Pull Request Merging Policy¶
A pull request can be merged if:
- It is a minor change [1];
- Enough time was given for peer reviews (at least 2 days for "regular" pull requests, and 4 days for pull requests with "a significant impact");
- At least the component's Merger or two other Core members voted
+1and no Core member voted-1.
Pull Request Merging Process¶
All code must be committed to the repository through pull requests, except for minor changes [1] which can be committed directly to the repository.
Mergers must always use the command-line gh tool provided by the
Project Leader to merge the pull requests.
