Hyperledger Governance is a documentation repository that describes the organizational structure, decision-making processes, and operational policies of the Hyperledger Foundation.
The repository addresses the need for transparent, centralized documentation of how the Hyperledger project community operates. It provides governance frameworks that define roles, responsibilities, and procedures for contributors and maintainers across Hyperledger's various projects. The approach consolidates governance information in a single source that can be rendered as a website for easy access and reference.
This repository is primarily of interest to contributors, maintainers, and stakeholders within the Hyperledger ecosystem who need to understand how decisions are made, how projects are structured, and what processes govern participation. It suits organizations and individuals evaluating involvement with Hyperledger projects and needing clarity on governance expectations. The rendered website version serves as the primary interface for consuming this documentation.
The project maintains steady documentation updates reflecting governance evolution, with contributions focused on clarifying and refining organizational policies rather than implementing new features. Activity centers on collaborative refinement of governance text and structure to ensure accuracy and accessibility for the community.
