Technical policy has a well-defined and fairly simple amendment process.
I suspect you're talking about more general topics, though; in that
case, there is a rarely-used General Resolution procedure by which the
mass of developers can vote their minds.

By and large, of course, the people who do the work get to make the
decisions; GRs are a rather nuclear option compared to jumping in and
helping.
