Project Overview
The Working Groups (WGs) create approve Projects to oversee the deliverables that have been approved. These Projects are activities that have been approved by one of the following groups: the Open Source Group, the Standards Group, the Policy Group, or the Community Group. Any output created by a Project that is intended for publication as a GSF deliverable must be approved by the WG and ratified by the Steering Committee before it can be releasedrelease.
Term
Once a project is approved, the submitter will be installed as the initial Project Lead. Additional project leads can be nominated and elected by their project peers. A Project Lead's term lasts for two years, but it is dependent on the organization's continued membership. If a Project Lead(s) resigns before completing their term, an election process will be triggered to find a suitable replacement.
