Submitter of a Pull Request (PR) will complete the Pull Request template to include any new changes that introduce dependency changes (e.g. imports or go module dependencies)

The standard Pull Request template includes a question that asks  - "Are there any new imports or modules? If so, what are they used for and why?"

Submitter of the PR will add a dependency label to the pull request.

If the dependency is security related, the submitter will add the security-review label to the PR so a member of the Security WG can help review.

Submitter should include scan results which include consideration of compliance (license) as well as security vulnerability (e.g. CVE) data, that can be reviewed by a Security WG member.

Note: Reviewers will see one of the changed files is go.mod for Go projects.

Run this command at the root of your repo

For a PR with new dependencies, the submitter of the PR will complete a manual paper study to collect the following data points for review:

• Total increase in new imports: (count)
  Does the new import introduce additional import dependencies, if so, how many?
  • Ensure that every one of the new dependencies is checked for the same criteria.
• Releases/Tags: (count)
  • We should avoid new imports that have never had a release and/or tag. How many is too few, this is a judgement call and probably involves also considering how long ago the last release was, and how far apart releases have been done.
• Contributors: (count)
• License - what is the license, and is it Apache 2.0 compatible?
• Stars/Forks/Watchers: (count)
  • These are all indications of how wide-spread the package is used.
• godoc.org metrics: (count)
  • The individual godoc pages hosted by godocs.org include metrics at the base of the page which indicate how many packages import the package
• Subjective opinion of the reviewers – at the end of the day, we rely on our reviewers to vet new code. Reviewers should give thought to whether the code is improving our project, whether we'd be better off to implement the functionality ourselves, and at the same time considering whether this new import itself comes with too many dependencies (e.g. go-kit).
  
  When submitting the PR, complete the PR template and set the labels using both - dependency , security-review (security components only)
• On approval, notify the working group chair to update the catalog of approved packages if required.
