Hi all,

At the gem5 users workshop, I brought up the importance of creating a
governance document (and other processes) for gem5. I have created an
initial proposal for the governance document. The link to a google doc is
below.

gem5 governance document
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/12X3YHGJShUS34sorQJIvcr5NUssZcmMIJovD9I3w0Ns/edit?usp=sharing>

Until Friday, this document will be open for everyone to edit. We want
feedback and edits from everyone! Even if you have never directly
contributed to gem5, we want your feedback on the document. Our goal is to
make a document that will allow gem5 to continue to be open for the
long-term.

After Friday, I'll close the document to edits and start only taking
comments so we can finalize the document. After the document is finalized,
we can start working on auxiliary documents and other things like a
roadmap, PMC, etc.

Here are some good links to read about what a governance document is:

Again, feel free to put your ideas out there! This is just a starting
point. We want the gem5 community to continue to be strong and grow. A
governance document will help us achieve this goal for years to come.

Cheers,
Jason
