## Governance Overview
|
|
|
|
This document defines the governance framework for the MokoCassiopeia project. The objective is to ensure clear ownership, predictable decision making, and accountable stewardship across development, releases, and community interaction.
|
|
|
|
## Project Ownership
|
|
|
|
MokoCassiopeia is owned and maintained by **Moko Consulting**. Final authority for project direction, releases, and policy enforcement resides with the project owner.
|
|
|
|
## Roles and Responsibilities
|
|
|
|
### Maintainers
|
|
|
|
Maintainers are responsible for:
|
|
|
|
* Setting technical direction and release priorities.
|
|
* Reviewing and approving pull requests.
|
|
* Managing releases and distribution artifacts.
|
|
* Enforcing repository policies, including security and conduct requirements.
|
|
|
|
### Contributors
|
|
|
|
Contributors may:
|
|
|
|
* Submit pull requests and issues.
|
|
* Propose enhancements and report defects.
|
|
* Participate in technical discussions.
|
|
|
|
Contributors do not have merge authority unless explicitly granted.
|
|
|
|
## Decision Making
|
|
|
|
Decisions are made using a maintainers led model:
|
|
|
|
* Routine changes are approved through pull request review.
|
|
* Material changes affecting architecture, branding, licensing, or release processes require maintainer consensus.
|
|
* The project owner retains final decision authority if consensus cannot be reached.
|
|
|
|
## Change Management
|
|
|
|
Significant changes should:
|
|
|
|
* Be documented through issues or pull requests with clear rationale.
|
|
* Consider backward compatibility and upgrade impact.
|
|
* Include documentation updates when behavior or usage changes.
|
|
|
|
## Release Authority
|
|
|
|
Only maintainers may:
|
|
|
|
* Cut releases and publish artifacts.
|
|
* Update version numbers and manifests.
|
|
* Publish update metadata or advisories.
|
|
|
|
Release processes follow documented workflows and automation standards.
|
|
|
|
## Security Governance
|
|
|
|
Security issues are governed by the SECURITY.md policy. Maintainers are responsible for confidential handling, coordinated disclosure, and publication of advisories when appropriate.
|
|
|
|
## Conduct Enforcement
|
|
|
|
Behavior within the project is governed by CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md. Maintainers are responsible for enforcement actions and escalation handling.
|
|
|
|
## Conflict Resolution
|
|
|
|
Conflicts are handled through:
|
|
|
|
* Direct discussion between involved parties when appropriate.
|
|
* Maintainer mediation when necessary.
|
|
* Final determination by the project owner if required.
|
|
|
|
## External Dependencies
|
|
|
|
The project depends on Joomla core and other third party components. Governance of upstream projects remains outside the scope of this repository, but upstream changes may influence project decisions.
|
|
|
|
