[snipped] Thanks for initiating this discussion - all sounds pretty good to me, and I agree with all the feedback which has been raised so far. I think pull request discussions are largely working very well so far, and should overflow into IRC / the mailing list when necessary. I also agree that we should be careful not to introduce any significant new overhead into the process. > IV. How should SME appointments be handled? > > a. Community vote? > > b. Organizational appointment? Well, we already have: https://trello.com/b/dHi6lDYL/crowbar-ownership the purpose of which was pretty much the same thing - to assign areas of ownership to individuals. Note however that it's not just the core codebase that needs to be owned, e.g. places like the website, wiki, Jenkins etc. too. > c. How are individual contributor efforts protected in this structure? What do you mean exactly? Efforts are already protected by the licensing, right? There's no copyright assignment required to contribute IIRC, so I think contributors retain copyright.
