The EML project is an open source, community oriented project dedicated to providing a high-quality metadata specification for describing data relevant to diverse disciplines that involve observational research like ecology, earth, and environmental science. The specification is maintained by voluntary project members who donate their time and experience in order to advance information management for ecology. Project decisions are made by consensus of the current maintainers on the project.
We welcome contributions to this work in any form. Individuals who invest substantial amounts of time and make valuable contributions to the development and maintenance of EML (in the opinion of current project maintainers) will be invited to become EML project maintainers. Contributions can take many forms, including the development of the EML schemas, writing documentation, and helping with maintenance, among others.
Write access to the EML source code repository is reserved for EML project maintainers. Contributions should be submitted as pull requests, and will be reviewed and merged by an EML project member.
