#59 (now closed without action) consumed the a large portion of the past 3-4 meetings of the TSC and the CTC. There is a question that has been raised: "What is the TSC's role?" ref1 ref2
The README.md actually offers many points on this:
- The [TSC] is the technical governing body of the Node.js Foundation.
- It admits and oversees all top-level Projects in the Node.js Foundation.
- TSC members are responsible for top level technical community concerns.
- The TSC establishes the default governance, conduct, and licensing policies for all Top Level Projects.
The Charter outlines the Responsibilities of the TSC which lists some specifics, but broadly defines "all technical development within the Node.js Foundation".
To me, an outsider, this looks pretty cut-and-dry... so, what role(s) are in question?
Additionally, @Fishrock123 expressed that he believes "the TSC is probably mis-named at this point." Ignoring the difficulties in changing the name... what name MIGHT better describe the Committee?
All of this is important to helping "bring outsiders along on the same journey" as @rvagg said.
BTW, I want to commend the TSC for it's candor in all of this.
