If you need to tag folks on an issue or PR, you will generally want to tag the owners (not the lead) for area to which the change or issue is closest to. For areas which are large and can be operating system or architecture specific it's better to tag owners of OS or Architecture.
This list is for this dotnet/runtime repo. The dotnet/aspnetcore repo has its own list.
Note: Editing this file doesn't update the mapping used by @msftbot for area-specific issue/PR notifications. That configuration is part of the fabricbot.json file, and many areas use GitHub teams for those notifications. If you're a community member interested in receiving area-specific issue/PR notifications, you won't appear in this table or be added to those GitHub teams, but you can create a PR that updates fabricbot.json to add yourself to those notifications. See automation.md for more information on the schema and tools used by FabricBot.

os- labels not listed here do not have explicit ownership.
Note
In this context, ownership is purely for the purposes of identifying which part of
of our engineering team (or the community) is on the hook for fixing issues labeled
with them. This isn't the same as supported. For example, we don't track os-windows
here because the regular area owners are on the hook for fixing bugs so there is no
dedicated OS lead/owner, rather ownership falls back to the area-* label. However,
Windows is a supported operating system of course.
