This group will seek to make decisions where there is consensus. The Group makes decisions in the following ways: either Committers assess
consensus, or the Chair assesses consensus, or where consensus isn't
clear there is a Call for Consensus [CfC] (see below) to allow multi-day
online feedback for a proposed course of action. It is expected that
participants can earn Committer status through a history of valuable
discursive contributions as is common in open source projects.
online feedback for a proposed course of action.
After discussion and due consideration of different opinions, a decision
should be publicly recorded (where GitHub is used as the resolution
of an Issue).

<p>
A <dfn>Committer</dfn> is authorized to make changes to one or more GitHub repositories that are managed by the group. Participants can earn Committer status through a history of useful contributions. Committer status is granted through consensus, as discussed in <a href="#decision">Decision Process</a>. There is no limit to the number of Committers in the group or on a repository. There is no time limit on Committer status. Each repository for ongoing work items should have at least one active Committer other than the Chairs. Chair(s) can revoke Committer status for any reason, and will notify the community. A Committer can give up the role voluntarily.
