+# Team members
+
+Flathub, as a centralized repository of software apps, has a dedicated team of
+contributors necessary to keep it running. These contributors are in charge of:
+
+* Reviewing new applications
+* Reviewing permission changes for existing aplications
+* Reviewing existing applications on Flathub in case they need to adapt to
+  modern guidelines
+
+Consequently, they can be viewed as the auditors and moderators of our
+community. As such, they play a big role in the decision-making process.
+They are also an important part of the Flathub and Flatpak trust model. The fact
+that applications' permissions are audited by the community helps to ensure
+consistent and safe permissions across Flathub. Therefore, they also enjoy the
+recognition for their work!
+
+## Becoming a team member
+
+We are always in need of more hands. If you want to be part of our team, help
+out and enjoy the benefits, simply follow these steps:
+
+* Engage with the community, so that other team members can know you.
+* Help review [pending applications](https://github.com/flathub/flathub/pulls)
+  so that they match the
+  [requirements](https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/requirements).
+  You don't need to be a team member to do so, more eyes are always welcomed,
+  and that way you can prove your interest and ability to do the reviews.
+  As with everything, there is always a learning curve, so the recommendation is
+  to start small and listen to the feedback of existing team members.
+  TODO: For how long should have people contributed? How many apps should they
+  have reviewed?
+* Review current apps to request and update permissions access.
+  TODO: Is there a public place where this is done that people can contribute
+  to? Or maybe just look at some existing apps?
+* Open an issue in the [flathub](https://github.com/flathub/flathub/) repo,
+  listing your contributions and why you want you become a member.
+  TODO: An issue template could help?
+* You need at least 2 team members to endorse you becoming part of the team,
+  so it is recommended that you have talked and collaborated with them before,
+  so that they are aware of your work and the benefit of having you on board.
+
+Please note that team membership is not a for-life benefit. In case of long
+inactivity or conflict, the leadership retains the right to revoke permissions
+without notice. If a team member wants to step down they can open an issue in
+the [flathub](https://github.com/flathub/flathub/) repo or can contact the
+admins via [mail](mailto:[email protected]) requesting so.
