@tim-schilling a question popped into my header while reading your year in review.
Are some of the working groups/teams meant to report to just the Steering Council or is the board always included?
I ask this here as it would seem from an outside perspective GSoC is more technical in nature over requiring much from the board?

From my understanding / perspective it is a and/or situation depending on the use case. GSoC and Djangonaut Space (if you think of it as a contributor WG) both are relevant to the technical aspect of Django. However, more of them are about community building which is the Board's purview.
So I think GSoC would report to the board, but would need a SC liaison for helping with project selection. Though that's not a strong preference.

That makes sense. More broadly is there a case to be made for some WG's to only have a SC liaison and no board liaison?

Yes. I'd imagine if we had a dedicated team for handling the new-features repo (no plans atm), that'd be entirely in the SC's domain. Or a dedicated team that managed a particular component.
Concretely, the mergers, releases, triage and review teams, likely all will be SC domain rather than board domain.

This is a first draft of the charter. I tried to keep it inline with current efforts. I expect as the WG forms and iterates, it will be more ambitious and the scope will change.
