VERONA is moving from a founder-led model to a self-appointing council structure.
This change reflects the growth of the project and our commitment to sustainably expand its functionality.
Anyone is welcome to open issues, submit pull requests, or propose new ideas.
All contributions continue to be reviewed under our existing four-eyes principle, where a council member reviews and approves each PR.
Most PRs are allowed to be reviewed by one council member, however, PRs that significantly deviate from the current scope and defined roadmap (#TODO: add link to roadmap md.)
require a consensus of an appropriate subset of the council (>1) to be approved.
A small council guides the project’s long-term direction.
The council determines project scope, sets priorities, and approves major changes.
- Self-appointing: Any council member may propose new members. The council invites new members based on consensus.
- Term & Rotation: Membership and rotation details will be documented.
The council members govern based on the roadmap (add link to roadmap). They aim to have atleast one open meeting a year to discuss the roadmap with the community. Meetings will be announced in Discussions.
Council decisions are made based on arguments and logic.
If consensus cannot be reached after enough discussion, a majority vote is used.
