What does “accepted” mean in this case? Who does the accepting? Is it
consensus? Consensus among who?
I have two alternatives to the consensus rule:
-
Something gets “published” (i.e., merged into the repo) if at least
one other (non-author) Stan developer endorses the design doc (and the
original authors declare it finished). -
I can also imagine having an appointed editor who decides when a
design doc is finished.
