No, I believe the inclusion of "and Code of Conduct violations" is important for maintaining a clear understanding of the scope of the Community Team's responsibilities. Removing these words could potentially create ambiguity about the team's role in addressing such violations. > 2.

However, this would only be feasible if we had a large pool of willing and qualified volunteers to fill delegated roles, which is currently not the case. Moreover, I do not see a strong need for such a policy as long as holding multiple delegated roles does not create a conflict of interest. > 3.

Delegations should be made based on the needs of the project, and there is no reason to set a rigid renewal timeline if the current delegates are doing their work effectively. > 5.

Yes, I would continue this practice, as it is an established method of communication. Since this is already explicitly stated, I see no need to change it. Kind regards Andreas. -- https://fam-tille.de
