Description
Tracking issue for CloudNativePG's CNCF incubation due diligence, per cncf/toc#1961 and the feedback being received from the TOC as part of the process.
Two workstreams feed this epic:
1. Five DD-required items that must close before the TOC vote (plus one post-incubation commitment).
2. A governance restructuring, proposed by the maintainers and supported by the TOC, that separates org-level governance authority (Steering Committee) from technical authority (subproject maintainer committees).
### Before the TOC vote
- [ ] Ratify the governance restructuring proposal (community review) — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Rewrite GOVERNANCE.md: subprojects, maintainer committees, steering charter — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Implement org-balanced voting (one vote per org) — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Formalise non-EDB maintainer pathway; elevate initial non-EDB subproject maintainers — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Form the Steering Committee; hold first meeting with published minutes — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Document the Security Response Team (roles, triage, escalation) — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
- [ ] Fix EDB logo/commercial link on cloudnative-pg.io — `cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg.github.io`
- [ ] Update SECURITY-INSIGHTS.yml primary contact to security@cloudnative-pg.io — `cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg`
- [ ] Update .goreleaser.yml maintainer to a project email — `cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg`
- [ ] Complete TOC adopter verification interviews (3+ required) — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
### Post-incubation
- [ ] 6-month progress update to the TOC — `cloudnative-pg/governance`
### References
