Description

In the context of https://github.com/nodejs/package-maintenance/issues/271

The package maintenance team is exploring how to host tools being developed.

The team does not want to use a repo in the nodejs or due to concerns that might make them look officially supported by the Node.js project and put other tools at a disadvantage.

At the same time the team would like to leverage existing governance, moderation that comes with a repo that is part of the Node.js org.

The ask is whether the TSC/CommComm would consider:

Can the Node.js Project can 'own' and additional repo, with the TSC delegating management of it to the Package-maintenance team and ask that things like moderation be extended to this new org.

Research direction

Start by reading package-maintenance issue #271 and the governance context for the TSC and CommComm. Review the request for an additional Node.js-owned organization or repository and delegated management by the Package-maintenance team. Done means a recorded decision on whether the proposed ownership and moderation arrangement is acceptable.
