I am curious if there are other factors other than the criteria detailed here: PSF Fellow Membership | Python Software Foundation that fellows are evaluated on, for example is there a limit for each quarter etc
No complaining, but there are times where nominations check one or more of the criteria but not make it to the roster, so am curious.
Thanks for raising the topic, @nanjekyejoannah! I have sent this along to the PSF Fellows WG and they are drafting some thoughts to share. A handful of them are currently busy with PyCon US, so they are planning to reply fully after the event concludes.
Is there a current source of information on the Fellows WG? I found https://wiki.python.org/psf/FellowWG, but it notes it is ‘in progress’ with no officers (‘TBD’).

Nominations can be found on the wiki at PythonSoftwareFoundation/FellowNominations - Python Wiki
