As the one who just lead a new project into governance last year, I think I could take a first stab at it.
For me the current requirements in general works fine, as I emphasized in my recent blog [0], the four opens are extremely important. Open Design is one of the most important out the four I guess, because it actually will lead to the diversity question. A team with a single vendor, although it could satisfy all the other three easily, could not have a good open design rather well. Another criteria (more related to the mission statement specifically) I would consider important is the ability to demonstrate (1)its scope does not overlap with existing official projects and (2) its ability to actively work with related projects. The cross project collaboration does not have to be waited after the project got anointed, rather started when the project is in conception. Well I guess that is my two cents :) [0] https://hannibalhuang.github.io/ On Sat, Apr 21, 2018 at 5:26 AM, Doug Hellmann <d...@doughellmann.com> wrote: > [This is meant to be one of (I hope) several conversation-provoking > questions directed at prospective TC members to help the community > understand their positions before considering how to vote in the > ongoing election.] > > We are discussing adding at least one new project this cycle, and > the specific case of Adjutant has brought up questions about the > criteria we use for evaluating new projects when they apply to > become official.
