Yes but like I said, many project keep their documentation in their |
| 35 |
project pages. Like openrc does for baselayout-2 migration guide. |
| 36 |
I don't disagree with you and yes maybe more team need to be |
| 37 |
managed/monitor at a senior level. The thing is that something HAS to |
| 38 |
change. |

I like your idea about the authority team (though this introduces |
| 41 |
another layer of bureaucracy). It would be nice to have a team |
| 42 |
monitoring all the projects and poking council to take action when |
| 43 |
needed. But this team looks like similar to QA doesn't it? What if this |
| 44 |
team is formed by Council members (2-3)? This team will gather feedback |
| 45 |
from the community ( "Hey devs, which teams need urgent attention?" ), |
| 46 |
design solutions and bring them to the Council agenda? |
