Those pages have a notice that the content should not be changed without
approval of the SC. I'd ask all of you to respect this, so that the SC
can work in wiki without the need.
Hi Andre,
First of all: I am full of respect for this great and exciting initiative.
Congratulations to all of you, Steering Committe and wider community
members!
As I'm brand new here (merit-score = zero :), I apologize if the following
is either misunderstood or not relevant:
The way I see it, formally approved documents are static, and once
approved should not be edited by anybody - Steering Committee members or
not. Therefore I do not think it is appropriate from a governance
perspective to have direct and potentially ambiguous 'copies' of formal
documents as wiki pages. Could it be worth considering that significant
formal documents like the manifesto would have their own wiki pages with a
backround/brief description, maybe even extracts, and then a link to the
'real' document in a non-editable format (pdf or whatever will make it
most easily accessible)? Another wiki page could then be a Steering
Committee 'log' page, which gives a quick overview of the continuous work
of the committee with links to more in-depth wiki pages as well as formal
documents...
Warm regards
Peter Tholstrup
