We consider everyone using the stactools-packages to be a 'contributor'.
We recommend following the Numpy Enhancement Proposals (NEP) 29 suggested deprecation policy for supported python versions.
When a project releases a new major or minor version, we recommend that they support at least all minor versions of Python introduced and released in the prior 42 months from the anticipated release date with a minimum of 2 minor versions of Python, and all minor versions of NumPy released in the prior 24 months from the anticipated release date with a minimum of 3 minor versions of NumPy.
Any proposed changes to an existing stactools-packages should be done as pull requests. Please make these
requests against the main branch (unless otherwise directed by the dataset maintainer).
