This webpage is about Lean 3, which is effectively obsolete; the community has migrated to Lean 4.

Admin team

The admin team oversees the activities of the Lean community organization and in particular the mathlib project. It is responsible for ensuring the mathlib project continues to reflect the general views and interests of the Lean/mathlib community.

The admin team is a central hub for coordination among other teams. It is responsible for procedural duties: when a decision needs to be made, what should the process be? In particular it is tasked with finding procedures to resolve conflicts when consensus cannot be reached. The admin team also the first point of contact for the community as a whole.

The members of all teams choose an admin team annually by an election, in a manner organized by the current admin team using a system that gives all members a vote of equal weight. Members of the admin team may be re-elected.
