The governance seems confused and I am not sure it technically meets the criteria of number of committers.

The governance doc[1] states "All PRs must receive approval from at least one super maintainer before merge",

so as there are only two super maintainers only two people are "someone who can accept contributions to

some or all of the project".

In practise this is ignored, and there are additional people with Github commit access, not listed as maintainers

who are merging many of the PRs, often without super maintainer approval. I know the CNCF does not require

full governance at this stage but the fact that the newly added governance seems to be ignored is a concern,

as external contributors are being treated differently.

The linkerd team has requested a move to the incubation level: https://github.com/cncf/toc/pull/86 

You can see the project statistics here: https://linkerd.devstats.cncf.io/ and the linkerd project believes they meet the incubation criteria requirements:

- Used successfully in production by at least three independent end users of sufficient scale and quality: https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd/blob/master/ADOPTERS.md

- Have a healthy number of committers: https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd/blob/master/MAINTAINERS.md
- Demonstrate a substantial ongoing flow of commits and merged contributions: https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd/releases and https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd/graphs/contributors

Please vote (+1/0/-1) by replying to this thread; the full incubation proposal located here: https://github.com/cncf/toc/pull/86

Remember that the TOC has binding votes only, but we do appreciate non-binding votes from the community as a sign of support!
