It's never been officially approved by the Foundation, so I assume that's why it's not been published. However, it is now about 8 years old, and so needs a review. For info, it's not a simple thing to do this review - there's quite a lot of "stuff" in there. I've created https://gitlab.gnome.org/Communit y/Board/issues/43 so people who are interested in this topic can follow along at home! Neil -- Neil McGovern Executive Director, The GNOME Foundation
