Introduce a decision log
Closed this issue · 5 comments
In a recent developer meeting a suggestion was made for "a place to store previous made community decisions and up to date policies". Potential areas where this could be kept include the main wiki, grin-pm/, grin/doc/, and on site/. Not all decisions and documentation are relevant to each of these areas, and I'm not sure ist one ideal location for all types of policies and documentation.
Instead, I propose that we create a "community decision log", that chronologically tracks decisions (and revisions alike) with a time stamp, where the decisions were made, and a reference to any specific policy, note that accompanies it. This way, we have a single central place for an overview of all the decisions, and when they were changed, while we keep each policy / doc in the location it should best be in. The log itself resides on /grin-pm and appends are made through PRs.
@Kargakis @ignopeverell makes sense?
grin-pm sounds good to me. My only suggestion re the site was that wherever we store this info, it should be discoverable from the site.
Makes sense to me as long as it doesn't become a pain to maintain.
Very good one, was always missed in so many projects before.
