We are having questions around best practices to submit a new PMD and we don't have a comprehensive documentation around it. And this is sometimes causing frustration. I assume one of the reasons related to the missing documentation is, it is hard to come with generalized guidelines. But by time, as maintainers we had formed some best practices in our mind and I believe they are mature enough to document. That is why I suggest forming a new workgroup with tree maintainers, and work on documenting process or best practices to submit a new PMD. This can be a time bound workgroup and task, like one quarter/release. What do you think?
