The review period will last until April 29th.<br>After which, we will enact the process for FOSS4G NA 2016.<br><br>The governance document is available publicly here<br><<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WlgmJgtl0LaV0EO0NtDDSnloTgsIvxu9KwddPDwX1WU/edit" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WlgmJgtl0LaV0EO0NtDDSnloTgsIvxu9KwddPDwX1WU/edit#</a>>.<br>Anyone can comment.
