[$] Changing GNOME technical governance?

The GNOME project, which recently celebrated its28th birthday, has never had a formal technical governance; progresshas been driven by individuals and groups that advocated for-and workedtoward-a particular goal in an ad hoc fashion. Longtime GNOME contributorEmmanuele Bassi would like to see that change by adding cross-project teamsand a steering committee for the project; to that end, he gave a talk (YouTubevideo) at GUADEC 2025in late July on his idea to establish some technical governance for theproject. He also put together a blogpost with his notes from the talk. The audience reaction wasfavorable, so he has followed up on the GNOME discussion forum with an RFC ongovernance to try to move the effort along.
