+# Governance
+
+The current PMC and committers are listed in the [Apache Phonebook].
+
+[apache phonebook]: https://projects.apache.org/committee.html?datafusion
+
+## Overview
+
+DataFusion is part of the [Apache Software Foundation] and is governed 
following
+the [Apache Way] and [project management guidelines], [independently of
+commercial interests].
+
+[apache software foundation]: https://www.apache.org/
+[apache way]: https://www.apache.org/theapacheway/
+[project management guidelines]: 
https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#management
+[independently of commercial interests]: 
https://community.apache.org/projectIndependence.html
+
+As much as practicable, we strive to make decisions by consensus, and anyone in
+the community is encouraged to propose ideas, start discussions, and contribute
+to the project.
+
+## Roles
+
+- **Contributors**: Anyone who contributes to the project, whether it be code,
+  documentation, testing, issue reports, code, or some other forms.
+
+- **Committers**: Contributors who have been granted write access to the  
+  project's source code repository. Committers are responsible for reviewing 
and
+  merging pull requests. Committers are chosen by the PMC.
+
+- **Project Management Committee (PMC)**: The PMC is responsible for the
+  oversight of the project. The PMC is responsible for making decisions about 
the
+  project, including the addition of new committers and PMC members. The PMC is
+  also responsible for [voting] on releases and ensuring that the project 
follows
+  the [Apache Way].
+
+[voting]: https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html
+
+## Becoming a Committer
+
+Contributors with sustained, high-quality activity may be invited to become
+committers by the PMC as a recognition of their contribution to the project and
+their shared commitment. Committers have the significant responsibility of 
using
+their status and access to improve the project for the entire community.
+
+When considering inviting someone to be a committer, the PMC looks for
+contributors who are already doing the work and exercising the judgment 
expected
+of a committer. After all, any contributor can do all of the things a committer
+does except for merge a PR. While there is no set list of requirements, nor a
+checklist that entitles one to commit privileges, typical behaviors include:
+
+- Contributions beyond pull requests, such as reviewing other pull requests,
+  fixing bugs and documentation, triaging issues, answering community 
questions,
+  improving usability, helping with CI, verifying releases, etc.
+
+- Contributions that are consistent in quality and sustained
+  over time, typically on the order of 6 months or more.
+
+- Assistance growing the size and health of the community via constructive,
+  respectful, and consensus driven interactions, as described in our [Code of
+  Conduct] and the [Apache Way].
+
+If you feel you should be offered committer privileges, but have not been, you
+can reach out to one of the PMC members or the [email protected] 
mailing
+list.
+
+[code of conduct]: https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html
+
+## Becoming a PMC Member
+
+Committers with long term sustained contributions to the project may be invited
+to join the PMC. This is a recognition of a significant contribution to growing
+the community, improving the project, and helping to guide the project's
+direction, typically over the course of a year or more.
