<p dir="ltr">Hi Peter,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Sounds like a good policy to me. Also for the branch protection, makes perfect sense.</p>

I recently learnt of another GitHub feature which may be<br>
of use for Biopython:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://github.com/blog/2392-introducing-code-owners" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/blog/2392-introducing-code-owners</a><br>
<br>
The Galaxy Project are now trying this for their repository of<br>
training materials (which is how I heard about the idea):<br>
<br>
<a href="https://github.com/galaxyproject/training-material/pull/539" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/galaxyproject/training-material/pull/539</a><br>
<br>
The idea is we can label a default owner for files or entire<br>
folders, and if a pull request changes those files, GitHub<br>
will automatically assign their owner as a reviewer.<br>
<br>
For example, we might include the following mappings:<br>
<br>
Bio/Cluster/* @mdehoon<br>
Bio/SeqIO/* @peterjc<br>
Bio/PopGen/* @tiagoantao<br>
Bio/Phylo/* @etal<br>
...<br>
<br>
This can be combined with the branch protection options,<br>
which I proposed using recently:<br>
