Update DEPs 1, 10, and 12 to reflect current governance #81
Conversation
- Marks DEPs 10 and 12 as final - Adds notes to the tops of those DEPs pointing to the Steering Council docs, as reading the DEPs to understand how the Steering Council operates is tricky (the DEPs are diffs basically not the full info). - Updates DEP 1 to reflect those changes, including renaming the Technical Board to Steering Council, removing references to "Core Developers" and updating the Shepherd role since core devs no longer exist.

Follow-up with similar updates to DEP 7: #91 |
This updates DEPs 1, 10, and 12 to reflect current governance (will fix #80):
to understand how the Steering Council operates is tricky (the DEPs are diffs basically not the
full info).
Council, removing references to "Core Developers" and updating the Shepherd role since core devs
no longer exist.
As much as possible, this is just a housekeeping cleanup. That's true of first two changes, which
are not substantive, but the last one kinda is. The DEP process as written describes roles that no
longer exist, so I've had to take some license on updating to reflect current roles.
I've tried to keep the changes as minimal and non-consequential as possible, so we can hopefully
get this document back to describing a process that can actually exist. So it's my opinion that
this doesn't need a formal DEP vote, just a rough "looks OK" from the community. But I do plan on
giving the Steering Council a heads-up about this in case they disagree.
Longer term, I think there's a good argument that we need to refresh DEP 1 more holistically (see
#28, for example), but I think that deserves a real conversation. I didn't want to wait on that
conversation to update these docs to make sense with today's structure, hence this PR.
