Count me in.

Procedurally, I think an informational PEP numbered in sequence is a good place for the “design” of our governance.  Once we’ve settled on a plan, we would capture the operational procedures in a new process PEP (I propose PEP 2), which would be our working document moving forward.  I think it’s pretty much a certainty that whatever we come up with initially will undergo changes as time goes on and we gain experience.  PEP 2 would then be the living document for our language governance process.
