Incubator Process Contains Archived Proposal Location

[danyeaw]

As brought up in jupyter/jupyter#766, the Jupyter Governance for Subprojects says that new projects can apply for incubation at https://github.com/jupyter-incubator/proposals, however that project is archived.

Thanks for bringing this up, @danyeaw . CC @jupyter/software-steering-council that should own the incubation process, as far as I understand.

and actually, now that I look back at those governance docs, it only mentions the @jupyter/executive-council for approval, and also the previous governance model of when were the unified single Steering Council

One of the sole responsibilities of the SSC is:

Owning, managing and implementing the Jupyter Incubation process (jupyter-incubator).

Since adding a new subproject is a governance change, I think the final adoption needs to be approved by EC and SSC, but I think the incubation process up to that point is up to the SSC.
