## Roles

### Core Committer
Core Committers should have at least "Maintain" level access to Silverstripe Core,
which includes the ability to push changes and perform releases.
This role may be granted by a quorum of all Core Committers.

This is a great way for active community members to help out, and start a path towards becoming a Core Committer.
Triage roles may be granted by any Core Committer,
who should give other Core Committers an opportunity to weigh in on the decision.
