Edit governance doc to better fit sub-team structure/powers #1543

@drjwbaker

Description

@drjwbaker

Spinning out from #1491 a proposal for editing the Governance document:

  1. add 'Sub-team calls' to our list of 'Venues for Discussion'.
  2. edit 'Monthly Skype calls' to 'Monthly Skype calls (including sub-team reports)'
  3. edit:

Members who have a specific interest in an issue (whether in approval or in dissent) are expected to make their voice heard on one of these venues. If any team members object to a course of action, we will not move forward without addressing those objections.

to:

Members who have a specific interest in an issue (whether in approval or in dissent) are expected to make their voice heard on one of these venues. Sub-teams are empowered to make decisions on behalf of the project (with the exception of policy level changes, see below), but must do so in a sufficiently transparent way that if any team members object to a course of action, we will not move forward without addressing those objections."

Pinging team leads: @mdlincoln @svmelton @rivaquiroga @spapastamkou @jenniferisasi @JMParr for comment.
