Hello everyone, the governance working group has been working a few efforts, but we haven't made as much progress as we would have liked over the past few months, so we are going to try out a new process and meeting agenda aimed at trying to get more work done in the time we know we have.
Previously we have been doing most of our work async while using our bi-weekly meeting call to triage tasks. The problem we ran into with this is that a lot of the members also heavy contributors to the Rust project as a whole, and it can be can hard for some people to schedule time write an initial draft.
To address this instead of triaging during the meeting and working on tasks in async, we're going to hold focused topic based meetings, and use the time between meetings, to publish posts like this and to research and prepare for the next topic. To help do this we're going to extend our current meeting duration from 30 minutes to an hour. (The meeting will still be every two weeks.)
The current goals are to documenting the de-facto governance structure, provide the result as a RFC and then if merged provide a version on forge.rust-lang.org so that it has greater visibility. We also want to schedule people involved in Rust and other governance structures to come and talk about their experiences.
For deciding what topics, we're going to rotate who takes the lead for each meeting. It's that person's responsibility to decide the topic and to prepare a call for participation similar to this post informing people of the topic and how they might best prepare if they wish to join.
We also hope that having a focused topic will reduce any barrier of expected knowledge in order to participate and contribute. With that said let's talk about the topic for next meeting.
Our first topic for new meeting is going to be to read RFC 1068, the original Rust Governance RFC, review how accurate it is to today's structure, and see any if there are questions that we have that it doesn't answer. Here are some other relevant RFCs for additional context:
Our next meeting is going to be at 22:00 UTC on Tuesday, November 19th
and we'd like to encourage anyone who's interested, regardless of their
previous experience to read those RFCs and come to the #wg-governance
channel on discord to attend the meeting. (Our meetings are done over a video
call with Zoom, but we use the discord channel to organise ourselves).
If some reason you know you won't be able to attend these meetings but would still like to participate. Please feel free to post any questions about Rust's governance as issues on our GitHub repository, even if you are not available to attend the working group's meetings.
