[wildfly-dev] Re: ACTION_REQUESTED: Acceptance of governance documents
I'm pleased to say that both proposals received all positive votes, with no
negative. So I've merged them and they are not official governance policies
for the WildFly Commonhaus Organization and for the WildFly AS top level
project.
Thank you all! This is an important step forward for the project.
In a next step I'll submit PRs to add GOVERNANCE.md files to the
https://github.com/wildfly/.github and
https://github.com/wildfly-extras/.github repos. These will basically be
pointers to the documents in wildfly/wildfly-governance that we just
merged. We need to have a GOVERNANCE.md in each repo, or in a .github
repository for any GH organization that has such a repo. For WildFly AS
repos at least we shouldn't repeat the details; just point to
wildfly-governance which will always hold the currently effective policy.
For maintainers of WildFly AS repos in other GH organizations, please let
me know how you'd like to proceed adding GOVERNANCE.md files to your repos.

WCO -- https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-governance/pull/4
WildFly AS -- https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-governance/pull/5
In my September 17 'Next steps on WildFly Governance' post here I noted
PRs. Thank you for your feedback on those. I hope I've answered any
questions and I know I've made some small adjustments based on your input.
Discussion has been quiet for a bit now, so I think it's reasonable to
proceed with a formal approval process starting today, as I mentioned in my
previous post.
The process is simple, and follows something Commonhaus has done on
similar things.
To record your opinion, do one of the following on each PR
* Approve the PR or react with (:+1:) in the top description box if it
looks good to you
* Review with Comments or react with (:eyes:) in the top description box
if you're "ok" with it (it may not be your favorite.)
* If you think it needs discussion or revision
* Create a review, add your comments and require changes
* Use the +- button to make a suggestion (instead of just adding a
comment).
We'll record opinions for two weeks. On October 21 I'll tabulate the
results.
