Abstract

In May of this year, we suggested updates to how the OSLC community governs itself. In June, the OSLC Steering Committee met for the first time after its members had signed the new OSLC Members Agreement (you can find links to all the updated legal docs here).

After collecting feedback from several members of the community we are at the final stages of rolling out the new governance changes. Today’s session will talk about the new governance process and we will demonstrate the new changes to the OSLC website based on these governance changes.

Please attend the session to understand how we are streamlining the process for the OSLC community to contribute.
