Hi all,

Here's a first draft of a governance document for NumPy.

Thanks for this.

I wasn't sure from your email whether you were asking for feedback as to whether this was the right governance model?

I mean that - for code - I think the usual procedure would be to discuss various potential solutions on the mailing list, and then follow up with something like a NEP that lays out the various alternatives with their pros and cons. But I have the impression here that you consider the general form to be set, and that you are asking for comments on the detail. Is that right?

I believe that the draft I sent around does reflect the consensus of those who were present at the dev meeting, but (as the document itself emphasizes!) of course it's helpful to hear critiques and concerns and ideas for how to do better... -- Nathaniel J. Smith -- http://vorpus.org
