Governance Evolution

N/A

Any specific aspects of your governance structure are you seeking feedback on?

I think Backstage can benefit from evaluating governance to be improved ensure that maintainer diversity continues to improve. Also simply getting a fresh set of eyes on project governance can be a useful exercise as Backstage moves towards graduation.

Do you have any concerns or specific areas where you feel your governance could be improved?
