[mertcanaltin]

hello everyone, I would like to join you, I am currently trying to contribute as much as I can under Node.js, I have learned a lot from the team and I continue to learn, my biggest motivation is to meet great people and learn something and reflect it as a contribution thank you all very much ❤️

Hi Mert 👋 out of curiosity, have you attended or collaborated in any OpenJS Collaboration spaces? I haven't seen you in any meeting or space I'm aware of, so just asking out of curiosity :)

[darcyclarke]

Apologies, I prematurely approved here - one caveat I have is usually meeting/seeing someone on a CPC call (can do intros there if you haven't already come to a call before - if you already have then I apologize but hope to see you at the next one).

Next meeting is Tue, April 30, 12pm – 1pm ET (ref. to the events calendar:

Just as a clarification, I don't want to be a gatekeeper, but we also shouldn't blindly approve PRs 🙈; I'd be more than happy to have you with us, Mert! But just please ensure you meet all the eligibility criteria as documented within this repo 🙏

[mertcanaltin]

yes I work in nodejs and express js, we worked together in crowdin @ovflowd, by the way I attend the meetings as a listener, I can attend the meeting you sent, I think I will succeed

[ovflowd]

Yes, I remember you, Mert, not questioning that 🙃

Merhaba Mert 👋 meraktan soruyorum, herhangi bir OpenJS İşbirliği alanına katıldınız mı veya işbirliği yaptınız mı? Seni bildiğim hiçbir toplantıda veya mekanda görmedim, o yüzden sadece merakımdan soruyorum :)

By the way, I haven't become a collabrator yet and I really want to be and I try to make good contributions
I could not participate because I am not a member of collabrator, I would love to participate

[mertcanaltin]

I read this part before I applied,

I think I will be active I thought I could not participate because I was not cooperative for meet

Regular Members
Anyone who has been active in the foundation or one of its member projects, as described in the [CPC Governance](https://github.com/openjs-foundation/cross-project-council/blob/main/governance/GOVERNANCE.md#approving-and-onboarding-regular-members) may request to become a regular member by opening a PR to add themselves to the list of regular members. Outgoing Voting members automatically become Regular members, although they must remain active to retain their status.

If this is a requirement we should add it to the document, otherwise it seems non relevant.
Mert is a Node.js triager and very active Node.js and express, I think that qualifies him already.

Agreed. We need to revisit our policies given the security concerns we have faced recently. I filed an issue to discuss this here (#1300).

@mertcanaltin, please be patient while we get our policies in order, and please feel free to start joining our calls already.

[tobie]

Blocking until we resolve #1300.

Hey @mertcanaltin,

Thank you so much for your interest in joining the CPC! I really appreciate it. At this moment, however, I don't feel confident approving your request.

I encourage you to attend more CPC meetings and actively participate in them, as well as engage with the Cross Project Council GitHub repository. Building a strong connection with the community and understanding what you want to contribute to the OpenJS community is very important.

While I can't approve your CPC membership request right now, I hope to see you around. Stay safe, and please feel free to join CPC meetings and stay active here ❤️

Keep in mind that I don't have the authority to approve/reject requests, so I don't speak for the CPC, but I speak as myself, as a CPC member :)

[mertcanaltin]

thank you very much for your answers, I will do my best
