Stable Core team process change --------------------------------------- * Draft proposal resolution is still under review[8] . Feel free to provide early feedback if you have any. * Elod has raised more issues today[9], that a few projects stable change (even auto generated patch) are not merged and so does their stable branch doc site is not up. For now, we are fine to auto/single core approval of those auto-generated patches and proceed to make stable branch doc site up.
