I wrote a (proposed) thing:

https://github.com/rbowen/comdev-working-groups/blob/main/wg-sharpeners/escallation.md

This is proposed advice around how and when an issue should be escalated. In 
summary, the main advice is, don’t. The secondary advice is, if, and only if, a 
project is *persistently unwilling* to acknowledge or address a problem, and 
even then, only if you’ve got another Sharpener who agrees with your 
assessment, would you *privately* tell the board about your concern, and then 
*drop it.*

I’m sincerely hoping that this kind of explicit process/advice will help to 
avoid the perception which I’m seeing from more than one place that this is 
just a way for people to be policemen in our projects.

Let me know what y’all think.
