# Maintainers This page describes the current module, library, and extension maintainers of Ruby. ## Module Maintainers A module maintainer is responsible for a certain part of Ruby. * The maintainer fixes bugs of the part. Particularly, they should fix security vulnerabilities as soon as possible. * They handle issues related the module on the Redmine or ML. * They may be discharged by the 3 months rule [[ruby-core:25764]](https://blade.ruby-lang.org/ruby-core/25764). * They have commit right to Ruby's repository to modify their part in the repository. * They have "developer" role on the Redmine to modify issues. * They have authority to decide the feature of their part. But they should always respect discussions on ruby-core/ruby-dev. A submaintainer of a module is like a maintainer. But the submaintainer does not have authority to change/add a feature on his/her part. They need consensus on ruby-core/ruby-dev before changing/adding. Some of submaintainers have commit right, others don't. ### Language core features including security * Yukihiro Matsumoto (matz) ### Evaluator * Koichi Sasada (ko1) ### Core classes * Yukihiro Matsumoto (matz) ## Standard Library Maintainers ### Libraries #### lib/mkmf.rb * *unmaintained* #### lib/rubygems.rb, lib/rubygems/* * Eric Hodel (drbrain) * Hiroshi SHIBATA (hsbt) * https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems #### lib/unicode_normalize.rb, lib/unicode_normalize/* * Martin J.
