Community#
AIBrix Slack Channels#
We use the vLLM Slack #AIBrix for informal discussions among users and contributors. Join the channels to start conversations and get support from the community.
AiBrix Mailing List#
The official AIBrix mailing list is hosted on Google Groups at maintainers@aibrix.ai.
Becoming a Maintainer#
We appreciate contributors who consistently help improve AIBrix. If you’ve been actively contributing, consider becoming a Maintainer — a role with broader responsibilities and deeper involvement in the project.
What is a Maintainer?#
Maintainers play a key role in keeping AIBrix healthy and growing. They help with:
Reviewing and merging Pull Requests
Triaging issues and managing labels
Shaping the project roadmap and priorities
Supporting new contributors and community members
Ensuring code quality and consistency across the codebase
Promotion Criteria#
We promote contributors to maintainers based on merit and sustained contribution. Here’s what we look for:
Consistent Contributions: You’ve submitted several high-quality PRs (code or docs) that have been merged.
Helpful Reviews: You’ve reviewed and commented constructively on other contributors’ PRs.
Community Engagement: You actively participate in GitHub issues, Slack discussions, or RFC reviews.
Responsibility and Ownership: You demonstrate initiative in identifying problems and proposing improvements.
There is no strict rule on the number of contributions — we evaluate holistically.
How to Become a Maintainer#
If you meet the above criteria and are interested in taking on the maintainer role:
Let us know! You can:
Open a GitHub discussion or issue to express interest.
Reach out to existing maintainers in Slack #AIBrix or by maintainers@aibrix.ai .
We’ll initiate a lightweight evaluation based on your recent contributions, engagement, and readiness to take on responsibilities.
Once approved, we’ll:
Grant you write access to the repository.
Add you to the @aibrix-maintainers team.
Invite you to internal roadmap discussions if applicable.
Open source is a marathon, not a sprint. If you ever need to step back temporarily or permanently:
Just let us know — no hard feelings.
You can always return when you’re ready.
Thank you for helping us grow AIBrix together!
