I think what we are missing here is more of guidelines and more examples to give ideas how to build a platform from the blocks. I see “Big Tent” as a terminology that covers our governance as well, therefore I would not go that far to deprecate it as of now.

On the other hand, I know at least one other community where a very similar concept than the set of constellations here is causing just as much frustration as the “Big Tent” currently in our case. I think we need to improve on communication and guidance first regardless of whether we get to the conclusion of changing the terminology finally or not.

Thanks,
