As discussed in #346, this is a pull request to gradually list the accesses and resources to use when becoming a new PyGMT maintainer.

Fixes #346.

Do you think we should put the checklist in the Maintainers Guide. The reasons are:

  1. We already have many files in the root directory of the repository. I prefer not to add more files.
  2. Maintainers need to read the guide to know how the PyGMT project works. It may be easier for them to learn everything from one file.

@seisman seisman modified the milestones: 0.3.0, 0.4.0 Feb 14, 2021

@seisman @weiji14 What else should I include on this (and/or get access to myself)?

The checklist looks good to me.

  • Added as maintainer on PyPI and Test PyPI (needed for handling releases)

This step is usually unnecessary, because releases are handled by github actions automatically.

Maybe list hackmd as optional too.
