In April and May of 2017, Whitney Hess mediated a series of community discussions about how to best evolve Drupal community governance to better support everyone’s needs. There were 7 sessions held at DrupalCon Baltimore and 7 virtual sessions. You can find the meeting minutes here.
On July 6, 2017, Whitney held a webinar to explain the findings from those discussions in depth. You can find the recording here.
In the presentation, a number of areas of improvement were mentioned, including "CWG Process, membership, resources" and "Codes of Conduct". A number of different potential strategies for addressing each of these areas of improvement were also identified.

Review and resolve the following issues:
