Makes sense, although I thought that the last one was already the
responsibility of the sponsors.

It seems to me though that this is not what happened in reality. This is
just a feeling and I have no data to backup this claim.

I think the idea of a GCD team is good, you can count me in (after the
release is done 😅). But I’d like to keep its responsibilities as low as
possible, to avoid team members having increased influence on GCDs.

Anyhow, here’s my ideas for improvement of the process:

- Reinforce the role of sponsors as timekeepers and consensus
  facilitators, to ensure that discussions are always moving towards
  consensus.

- Provide mail templates to clarify the roles of everyone and what is
  expected at each step. For example to clarify that the submission
  period is not for discussion.

WDYT?

Have a nice day,
Noé
