Hi!
A while ago I started looking into all the documents (RFCs etc) that we
have that relate to all sort of policies. From RFCs, to who can vote,
naming, and security classifications as a result of a discussion with
the foundations folk.
Now there was another small confusion during a recent vote, we came up
with the idea to actually go forwards with this, and make all our lives
easier by having one place where all these documents are located.
Hence I have created a (beta) repository and collected that information:
https://github.com/php/policies
The contents are copied verbitim from RFCs, without any editing. Some
RFCs made it into a single file as IMO they belonged together.
I have also created an RFC to establish this location, as changing
policies and RFCs require an RFC:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/policy-repository
The contents are probably not exhaustive, and it is entirely possible
that it does not include all information. I would therefore be greatful
if you could have a look at the RFC, the collated documents, and let me
know whether I missed anything, or whether you are missing something we
might not even have written down yet.
I am hoping that the discussion to establish this repository is
straightforwards. Further steps will include: editing the documents so
that they read as documents, and not copy-pasted content with RFC
language, and including our existing coding standards.
cheers,
Derick
