Per-area pointers

Each subdirectory of the repository has its own OWNERS file (or inherits the root's) describing approvers and reviewers. Notable ones:

• server/OWNERS, tests/OWNERS, etcdctl/OWNERS, etcdutl/OWNERS, pkg/OWNERS, tools/OWNERS, Documentation/OWNERS, security/OWNERS, contrib/OWNERS, scripts/OWNERS, CHANGELOG/OWNERS, .github/workflows/OWNERS.

Use git log -- <path> to find recent committers in an area, and OWNERS to find the people who can approve PRs there.

How to get involved

Documentation/contributor-guide/community-membership.md formalizes the path from contributor → reviewer → approver → maintainer. The community meeting (Thursdays 11 AM Pacific) and the issue-triage meeting are the primary on-ramps; see README.md for the meeting links.
