* A maintainer may step down by emailing the [Helm mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-helm)
* Maintainers MUST remain active. If they are unresponsive for > 3 months they will be automatically removed unless a [super-majority](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermajority#Two-thirds_vote) of the other project maintainers agrees to extend the period to be greater than 3 months
* New maintainers can be added to a project by a [super-majority](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermajority#Two-thirds_vote) vote of the existing maintainers. While nomination will happen on the public [Helm mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-helm), voting will happen on the private maintainer list.

For something like voting, do you need record of it? If so, then it probably makes sense to leave it on the maintainer email list as is.

I think Karen's point is that there does not exist an email list for helm-www maintainers specifically.

* When a project has no maintainers the Helm org maintainers become responsible for it and may archive the project or find new maintainers
* When maintainers no longer maintain active projects due to project archival or removal, they become emeritus maintainers unless they join another Helm project as maintainers.
