=== Roles ===
 +
 +
In addition to the Release Manager, there are four other distinct roles in the new-feature process: the proposer of the idea; the developer of the idea; the maintainer of the relevant module and the Sugar community.
 +
 +
* The proposer (or "owner") of the idea is the one that proposes the feature and completes the new feature proposal as described below;
 +
* The developer of the idea is the one that implements the idea and, where applicable, follows the process to include it in a release;
 +
* The maintainer of the module is the one that reviews any code that needs to be merged for a feature; and
 +
* The community provides feedback throughout the process, but especially at the stage where by we decide which new-feature proposals to pursue.
 +
 +
As noted above, the Release Manager is the one that sets and enforce the policy for features, including setting dates, formalizing processes, etc.
