If you want to ensure that a recipe becomes stable and reliable, then you can become the maintainer. If you maintain a recipe alone, ask for help and encourage others to join in. The only way we can reduce the endless workload of application updates is to coordinate our work together. +!!! note "A note on quality and trust!" + + The real promise of [`R025`](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation/resolutions/passed/025/) is that a single person or collective does not need to maintain every recipe they deploy. This way we can focus on few recipes where we can put our efforts and expertise instead of trying to keep up with updates from half of the recipe catalogue. This is all due to the trust we put in our fellow maintainer comrades and backed by our [democratic federation](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation). + ### `README.md` and `MAINTENANCE.md` You can start by reading The Maintainers Proposal: [`R025`](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation/resolutions/passed/025/). Check if there are maintainers mentioned in the `README.md` of the recipe repository and if there is a `MAINTENANCE.md` present. For example, for the traefik recipe, here is [the list of maintainers in the `README.md`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/traefik/src/commit/8eaee04b5d9980a99fdad57677a4c72d7796da10/README.md?display=source#L8) and the maintainers guidelines in the [`MAINTENANCE.md`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/traefik/src/commit/8eaee04b5d9980a99fdad57677a4c72d7796da10/MAINTENANCE.md). If there is no `MAINTENANCE.md`, copy the template below and create your own.
