I just posted a pull request version of the governance document:

   https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/6352

It's definitely still a draft, but now that we're making changes I
wanted to get it into a form where people can at least see what those
are :-).

In interests of making that easy, the PR is structured as a
ReST-converted version of the document originally posted, plus
clearly-separated commits on top of that.

The only non-trivial changes are:
- I split the lists of people out into a separate document:
https://github.com/njsmith/numpy/blob/governance/doc/source/dev/governance/people.rst
  (currently filled with the original seed council proposal for the
reasons mentioned above)
- I removed the link to the inaccurate github "contributors" page
