It provides an overall two-tier organizational governance structure for a set of free and open source projects. At the top level (called an \"organization\" on GitHub), there is a technical steering committee to make decisions about the overall direction and coordination between all the organization's projects. Underneath that top level are the individual projects, with lightweight, consensus-based governance.\n\nThere are two folders. The first, org-docs, provides top-level organizational governance and policies for a technical steering committee (TSC). The second folder, project-docs, provides a template for individual project governance, subject to the policies and oversight of the larger organization.\n\nMinimum Viable Governance is meant as a way to quickly stand up collaborations that can grow with your organization and projects. If your organization grows to the point where a corporate home becomes necessary, typically when your organization begins holding money, MVG is designed to make that transition easy.\n\n## Why would we want to use this?\n\nMinimum Viable Governance allows you to start an organization and sub-projects with simple governance in place at the outset - including legal terms, licensing and trademark issues, and due process. Having this governance in place early helps avoid disputes among participants down the road.\n\n## How do we use this?\n\n1. Review the documents and determine if this is right for you.\n2. Describe the organization's mission in Section 1 of the [CHARTER.md](org-docs/CHARTER.md) file.\n3. Put the org-docs in a repository for the organization's governance and have each initial TSC member \"sign\" the [STEERING-COMMITTEE.md](org-docs/STEERING-COMMITTEE.md) file by adding their name and organizational affiliation (if applicable) to the file.\n4. For each project that will be under your organization's governance, create a repository under the organization and have each initial maintainer \"sign\" the [MAINTAINERS.md](project-docs/MAINTAINERS.md) file by adding their name and affiliation (if applicable) to the file.\n5. [Choose a license](https://choosealicense.com/) or fill out the copyright information in the MIT [LICENSE.md](project-docs/LICENSE.md) file for each project.\n6. Get to work.\n\n## Contributing\n\nHi there! We're thrilled that you'd like to contribute to this project.
