In order to be more clear on the roles and responsibilities in OpenSCD, a governance setup is needed. This becomes more urgent with the move towards OpenSCD-core.
Organisation level governance idea
Administrative rights for the github.com/openscd organisation have been with Jakob Vogelsang and Christian Hildebrandt from when the OpenSCD project was first published by OMICRON in 2020. As more parties have taken an interest in the project since then, we could set up something analogous to a technical steering committee with a representative from each contributing party (Alliander, OMICRON, TransPower, and others as they join) who meet monthly to make overarching organisation-wide decisions, appoint maintainers for individual repositories, and adopt new repositories into the organisation and who are given administrative rights for the GitHub @openscd
organisation. Jakob and Christian would like to know what the other parties involved think of this idea.
