I think this table is meant to be appended to on each update. Actually the Update entry from the first update last week probably should've been

This is a good interim change, but we really should have a proper rewrite of some of the more substantial parts of the charter. I'll send a draft PR sometime this week with the sorts of changes I'd propose us having.

Thanks @caniszczyk; I think this looks reasonable. But per @cyphar's comment, I think the only thing to resolve is whether we want to use a piecemeal approach over the next month or two to edits, or do we want to collect up a "working copy" and only have one major "update"/release of the new charter when approved? I could go either way, but I think one practical matter is that the "update" table at the top could get rather long and generate a bunch of interim charters while we work on the overall complete update.

One option that keeps PRs simple and easily reviewable is to separate the concept of edits versus a "point release" update of the overall charter. Edits (like this one) are easily changelog tracked here in GH by commit, but a release would be tracked by actually producing a version of this with a specific release version (1.1, 1.2, ...) similar to the code release process on GH.

Alternatively, we could have a draft branch which we make changes against and then we have a final merge after a 2/3 TOB vote. I am working on a set of changes to the charter to try to update and clarify several aspects of the project governance.

I'm currently working on a larger Charter cleanup which would best be merged with these changes. @caniszczyk would you mind if I carry this patch in my series? Or would you prefer to merge this change first and then I rebase my work on top of it? The reason is that most of sections 1, 2, 5, and 6 need to be reworked and this change is part of the section 1 rework that I'd like to do.
