Being a good maintainer

In this BoF, I will present my personal views about what being a good maintainer of a Free Software project, most specifically a GNOME project, involves. These views were shaped by my seven years of experience of maintaining a few GNOME projects such as Rygel, GUPnP, Boxes, Geoclue and Maps. I feel these views might be valuable to maintainers and developers, especially new ones.

This was supposed to be a regular talk but didn't make it to the short list and I also realized that since its mostly about opinions, it might be better to have it as a BoF where it'd be more like a dialogue than a monologue.
