Description
This panel discussion, moderated by Chris Aniszczyk (CTO of The Linux Foundation), features members of the Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) discussing its governance structure, scope, mission, and processes. The session covers how projects are admitted, moved between maturity levels (sandbox, incubating, graduated), and the role of Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs). The speakers also address the challenges and rewards of TOC membership, the balance between community and business interests, and how to maintain transparency for projects undergoing evaluation.
