  • 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
