The aim of sharing the design wiki page was to show you a design document which contains lots of information, yours doesn't have to be that way but it should give you an idea of what a similar document should look like.
I don't think the old design review committee process should be revived. I agree with James too, the document doesn't seem have been researched. You should open a PR on sugarizer to continue the discussion there, it's easier when there's something to test. -- Ibiam Chihurumnaya ib...@sugarlabs.org On Mon, Mar 13, 2023 at 8:35 PM MR.
