    • Proposal default should be to have separation between committer and PPMC election
    • Criteria are vague, should we add some example persona?
    • Spell out privileges of committer and PPMC member
  • Ashok: we should follow Apache process requirements - keep it open and don't put restrictions on developers to contribute
    • TF ngraph integration PR was approved in < 1wk, TF, PT - clarity on main committers and approvers
    • MXNet: some directories have automatic assigned reviewers, PR 12502 didn't have assigned reviewer/approver, ambiguity
    • for small PR w/o design doc we should have a streamlined PR approval process
  • No labels
