We need a process flow for specs to become standards #305

Open camaleon2016 opened 2 months ago

We need a process for a spec created in a Project to become a standard. We can build out what this looks like, but there should a way for the TAC to be kept in the loop properly as spec go before any standards process.

To be clear: this is about submitting an OpenSSF specification to a formal standards body such as JTC1. I agree that we should decide what approval this requires. I don't know that we need to have a complicated process but this should at least have the approval from the TAC.
